[Balo's concentric sclerosis].

Balo's concentric sclerosis (BCS) is a rare demyelinating disease, first described by Hungarian neurologist Josef Balo in 1928. BCS occurs predominantly in young adults, the average age of onset of the disease - 34 years (range from 3 to 62 years). Our case report describes a 27-year woman with acute onset progressive right-side pyramidal weakness, MRI results showed a variant of demyelination as Balo's concentric sclerosis.

[Clinical and functional characteristics of giant pituitary adenomas in the population of patients in the Moscow region].

Unlabelled: Benign pituitary tumors are the most common sellar neoplasms. Lesions larger than 39 mm in the maximum dimension are called giant. They are rare, and, therefore, there are few data on the clinical and morphological features of giant pituitary tumors with different hormonal activity.

[Cognitive dysfunction and the progression of neurodegenerative process in patients with multiple sclerosis].

Introduction: Neurodegeneration (ND) is the basis of the gradual increase in neurological deficit and cognitive impairment in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). Morphometry of the brain is the method for monitoring of ND. The possibility of using neuropsychological tests for this purpose is being actively discussed.
