We investigated this hypothesis by studying the occurrence of CCSVI in clinically isolated syndromes (CISs) suggestive of MS.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Fifty consecutive patients presenting with a CIS and evidence of dissemination in space of the inflammatory lesions (ie, possible MS [pMS]) underwent a detailed diagnostic workup, including extracranial and transcranial venous echo\u2010color Doppler sonography (ECDS\u2010TCDS). Those with CCSVI underwent selective venography. Fifty healthy subjects (HCs) age\u2010matched and gender\u2010matched with pMS patients (HC1); 60 patients with transient global amnesia (TGA); and 60 healthy subjects age\u2010matched and gender\u2010matched with TGA patients (HC2) constituted the control groups and underwent ECDS\u2010TCDS.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Mean age of pMS patients was 33.0 \u00b1 8.5 years (range, 14\u201350); 35 (70%) were female (female:male ratio, 2.3). TCDS was normal in all pMS patients. One or more abnormal ECDS findings were observed in 26 of 50 (52.0%) pMS patients, in 35 of 110 (31\u00b78%) HCs (HC1+HC2), and in 41 of 60 (68.3%) TGA patients. Eight (16%) pMS patients fulfilled the diagnosis of CCSVI.
