- CADASIL patients can be misdiagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS).
- A systematic review identified 19 cases with CADASIL and MS-like inflammatory features.
- Common features include sensory and motor manifestations, gait imbalance, and migraine.
- Most patients had small vessel disease or demyelinating lesions on imaging.
- Genetic testing is crucial for accurate diagnosis in suspected CADASIL cases.
- The term 'inflammatory CADASIL' is proposed for such presentations.
