Chronic Lymphocytic Inflammation with Pontine Perivascular Enhancement Responsive to Steroids May Extend above and below Pons and Is Associated with Other Autoimmune Diseases

Many autoimmune diseases can affect the central nervous system, and their varying clinical presentations often confound a straightforward diagnosis. In this report, we describe a unique presentation of CLIPPERS syndrome. To our knowledge, this is the first case to demonstrate significant supratentor...
