The present report is a rare case of Balo Concentric Sclerosis. Most cases have either been diagnosed post mortem or have succumbed to the disease after being diagnosed ante mortem. In our case, the patient showed a dramatic response to treatment, and after a one-year follow-up, he was asymptomatic, with no relapses or residual effect of the illness.
