I Masoodi1, Omar Farooq, Iqbal Ahmad, Mohamad Yassin.   

Abstract

Progressive Multifocal Leucoencephalopathy (PML) is a rare neurological disorder. The clinical suspicion about this disease in the setting of an immunosuppressive patient even in presence of vague neurological symptoms has to be very high. We describe here two cases of PML a post renal transplant patient and second elderly patient with no underlying immunosuppression.
