RESUMO
Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis is an acute inflammatory demyelinating disorder of the cenrtral nervous system and patients usually present with signs of meningitis, depressed levels of consciousness, disorientation and/or motor or sensory deficits, depending on the affected sites. We present an unusual case of acute disseminated encephalomyelitis with the chief complaint of high-grade fever and urinary retention instead of any signs of neurological disturbances. This is the 10th report of this kind of presentation in Japan.
