Abstract. Purpose:To report a child of multiple sclerosis with epileptic seizures and bilateral optic neuritis as initial manifestations. Case:A 15-year-old boy had had seven episodes of epileptic seizure and loss of consciousness during the past 2 months. He was referred to us for bilateral visual loss since 3 days before. Findings and Clinical Course:His corrected visual acuity was 0.04 in either eye. Both eyes showed swelling and hyperemia of optic disc with central and sector-shaped scotoma. Magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)showed foci of demyalination in the cerebral cortex and optic nerve. After temporary improvement following pulsed corticosteroid therapy, another epileptic seizure led to the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis. Conclusion:Epileptic seizures and optic neuritis may be initial manifestations of multiple sclerosis in a child.
