Sporadic Adult-Onset Leukoencephalopathy with Neuroaxonal Spheroids Mimicking Cerebral MS
Neurol 70:1128-1133, Keegan,B.M.,et al, 2008
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Leukoencephalopathy with neuroaxonal spheroids occurs sporadically, in adults, and mimics cerebral-type MS or other leukodystrophies. Brain biopsy may be diagnostic in life; however, no treatment is known to be effective. Pathologic diagnosis is important to avoid potentially toxic therapies aimed at CNS inflammatory diseases such as MS.
