Abstract :
Acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM) is an inflammatory usually monophasic demyelinating disease of the central nervous system. ADEM is one of several categories of primary inflammatory demyelinating disorders of the central nervous system. Other diseases include multiple sclerosis, optic neuropathy, acute transverse myelitis, and neuromyelitis optica (Devic’s disease). Post infectious
And post-vaccination encephalomyelitis make up most of cases. Post-vaccination ADEM has been associated with several vaccines such as rabies, diphtheria–tetanus–polio, smallpox, measles, mumps, rubella, Japanese B encephalitis, pertussis, influenza and hepatitis B vaccine.
