مستخلص: Introduction: Baló's concentric sclerosis (BCS) is a rare type of central nervous system demyelinating disorder. Most patients with BCS are treated with corticosteroids, and spontaneous remission has seldom been described.
Case Presentation: A 46-year-old man presented with a subacute-onset headache and memory loss. Brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed multiple onion-shaped ring lesions with mild enhancement in the outermost ring. A brain biopsy revealed significant myelin loss. The diagnosis of BCS was established based on the MRI results and pathological findings. Interestingly, the patient recovered almost completely without immunotherapy, with repeated brain MRI at the 1-year follow-up showing an obvious reduction in the extent of the lesions.
Conclusion: Neurologists should improve the recognition of the typical MRI features of BCS to avoid unnecessary biopsies. Although rare, spontaneous remission can be observed in clinical practice.
