ABSTRACT
Tumefactive demyelinating lesions (TDL) are a rare occurrence among inflammatory demyelinating diseases of the central nervous system, distinguished by tumor-like lesions exceeding 2 cm in diameter. While various etiologies have been associated with TDL, only a limited number of case reports document the coexistence of acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) and TDL. Here, we present the case of a female diagnosed with dengue fever two weeks prior, who subsequently developed left hemiparesis and encephalopathy. Both her brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and clinical course align with the characteristics of tumefactive ADEM.
