EFFECT OF MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS ON BRAIN STRUCTURES

Year 2021, Volume: 3 Issue: 2, 70 - 78, 31.08.2021

Abstract

In this review, it is aimed to summarize the scientific findings made in recent years about Multiple Sclerosis (MS), whose etiology isn’t known exactly, and the anatomy of the brain structures affected by it.
MS is a chronic and neurodegenerative disease of the Central Nervous System, which starts suddenly and insidiously, accompanied by various degrees of inflammation, demyelination and axonal damage. MS is more common between the ages of 20 and 40, and in women. It is stated that the prevalence of MS varies according to ethnic groups and geographical regions. Symptoms of MS vary according to the area of involvement. Some areas where the lesions are generally involved are the optic nerve, periventricular and periaqueductal region, floor of the 4th ventricle, posterior end of the lateral ventricle, centrum semiovale and corpus callosum. In this review the effects of MS in the n. opticus, ventriculus lateralis and corpus callosum will be presented from an anatomical point of view.
