Tumefactive demyelination: Clinical outcomes, lesion evolution and treatments

Multiple Sclerosis Journal - Experimental, Translational and Clinical, 2019
Objective Large demyelinating lesions with possible mass effect (tumefactive multiple sclerosis or tumefactive demyelination) can be mistaken for tumour-like space-occupying lesions suggesting a malignant outcome.

Decisive role of brain biopsy in atypical tumefactive demyelinating lesions: A case report [PDF]

Radiology Case Reports
In neuroimaging, tumefactive demyelinating lesions (TDLs), which are rare inflammatory lesions of the central nervous system, can sometimes resemble infectious or malignant processes. Radiologic distinction is frequently made more difficult by their huge
