Hereditary CNS demyelinating disease

From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

A hereditary CNS demyelinating disease is a demyelinating central nervous system disease that is primarily due to an inherited genetic condition. (This is in contrast to autoimmune demyelinating conditions, such as multiple sclerosis, or conditions such as central pontine myelinolysis that are associated with acute acquired insult.)^{[citation needed]}
