RESUMO

RESUMO

Os autores descrevem o caso de um paciente com 48 anos de idade cujos sinais e sintomas, TC e RM foram sugestivos de tumor cerebral mas, posteriormente, nova RM, estudo do LCR e biópsia cerebral sustentaram o diagnóstico de esclerose múltipla. Curiosamente, no transcurso da enfermidade este paciente apresentou parkinsonismo, provavelmente relacionado com a doença de base
