Tumefactive Multiple Sclerosis of the Cervical Spinal Cord: A Rare Case Report.

Tumefactive multiple sclerosis (TMS) is a rare variant of multiple sclerosis (MS) with atypical features that pose a diagnostic challenge. In this study, we report a case of cervical MS in a 19-year-old patient that was diagnosed based on the MRI findings and cerebrospinal fluid analysis. The patient was treated with high-dose steroid and five sessions of plasma exchange with significant improvement.

These arteries usually originate separately from the ventral aspect of the abdominal aorta. In some cases, two or more of these arteries may originate from a common trunk.
