Abstract
Mills' syndrome is rare clinical syndrome described in 1900 by Mills, namely ascending (or less often, descending) progressive hemiplegia. Mills' syndrome could be considered as a variant of primary lateral sclerosis (PLS) or amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), but is still controversial. According to clinical course, imaging and electrophysiological findings, our case is more compatible with Mills' syndrome rather than PLS or ALS. To our knowledge, this is the first report of Mills' syndrome in Korea.
