LEFT-VENTRICULAR TUMOR MASQUERADING AS MULTIPLE-SCLEROSIS
LEFT-VENTRICULAR TUMOR MASQUERADING AS MULTIPLE-SCLEROSIS ARCHIVES OF NEUROLOGY Albers, G. W., AVALOS, S. M., Weinrich, M. 1987; 44 (7): 779-780Abstract

Embolization from cardiac tumors can mimic multiple sclerosis and multiple echocardiograms may be required for diagnosis.
