  2. Balo concentric sclerosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balo_concentric_sclerosis

    Baló's concentric sclerosis is a disease in which the white matter of the brain appears damaged in concentric layers, leaving the axis cylinder intact. [1] It was described by József Mátyás Baló who initially named it "leuko-encephalitis periaxialis concentrica" from the previous definition, [2] and it is currently considered one of the borderline forms of multiple sclerosis.

    Balo concentric sclerosis, an unusual presentation of plaques forming concentric circles, which can sometimes get better spontaneously. Schilder disease or diffuse myelinoclastic sclerosis: is a rare disease that presents clinically as a pseudotumoural demyelinating lesion; and is more common in children. [7] [8]

  5. Scleral Ring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scleral_ring

    The scleral ring or sclerotic ring is a hardened ring of plates, often derived from bone, that is found in the eyes of many animals in several groups of vertebrates. Some species of mammals, amphibians, and crocodilians lack scleral rings. [1] The ring is in the fibrous outer layer of the eye, called the sclera.

  6. Tumefactive multiple sclerosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tumefactive_multiple_sclerosis

    In tumefactive multiple sclerosis, the ring-enhancement is open, not forming a complete ring. Tumefactive multiple sclerosis is a condition in which the central nervous system of a person has multiple demyelinating lesions with atypical characteristics for those of standard multiple sclerosis (MS).

  7. Annulus (zoology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annulus_(zoology)

    In zoology, an annulus is an external circular ring. [1] Annuli are commonly found in segmented animals such as earthworms and leeches. The bodies of these annelids are externally marked by annuli that are arranged in series with each other. An annulus may also be an indication of growth in certain species, similar to dendrochronology.

    [35] [36] Recently, it is thought that it represents ischaemia-like injury with absence of oligoclonal bands in the CSF, related to the pathogenesis of Balo concentric sclerosis. [37] Pattern IV The scar presents sharp borders and oligodendrocyte degeneration, with a rim of normal-appearing white matter. There is a lack of oligodendrocytes in ...

  9. Marburg acute multiple sclerosis - Wikipedia

    Other diseases in this group are neuromyelitis optica (NMO), Balo concentric sclerosis, and Schilder's disease. [1] The graver course is one form of malignant multiple sclerosis, with patients reaching a significant level of disability in less than five years from their first symptoms, often in a matter of months.
