  • Neurology
  • Pediatrics
  • Immunology

Background:

  • Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic demyelinating disease of the central nervous system.
  • While typically diagnosed in adults, pediatric-onset MS (POMS) presents unique diagnostic challenges.
  • Early-onset MS, even in infancy, is a recognized but less common presentation.
