Abstract

A 34-year-old man presented with progressive neurologic deterioration though clinically to be multiple sclerosis. At autopsy, the cerebral white matter, deep gray matter, and brain stem were diffusely infiltrated with cells characteristic of oligodendrocytes. Gliomatosis cerebri consisting predominantly of oligodendroglia is rare.
