Abstract
A female patient aged 48 years presented with sub-acute onset of weakness in right upper
and lower limb over the past one month and numbness over left side of body below neck level.
Multiple sclerosis (MS) presenting as Brown-Séquard syndrome is very rare. We present a case of
hemicord myelitis which presented as Brown-Séquard syndrome as a first manifestation, which
was later diagnosed as MS during subsequent relapses.
