title: [Multiple sclerosis or recurrent disseminated encephalomyelitis?].
abstract: Two cases of acute demyelinization with recurrent course are described. The problem of differentiation between acute disseminated encephalomyelitis and multiple sclerosis is discussed. Clinical presentations with the prevalence of memory and praxis impairment and large MRI lesions in the subcortical white matter support the diagnosis of acute disseminated encephalomyelitis.
