| Core Tip |
Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) is typically a pediatric, post-infectious demyelinating disease of the central nervous system. We report a rare case of idiopathic, adult-onset ADEM in a 55-year-old man with no preceding infection, vaccination, or autoimmune history. This case underscores the diagnostic complexity of ADEM in older adults, particularly when presenting with atypical symptoms and radiological findings. Early recognition and a high index of suspicion are critical for timely intervention, even in resource-limited settings. Our findings emphasize the need to broaden diagnostic considerations for encephalopathy and multifocal neurological deficits in adults. |
