Inflammatory infratentorial progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy in a patient with rheumatoid arthritis.

Boleslaw Lach1, Barbara Connolly, Christian Wüthrich, Igor J Koralnik.   

Abstract

An 84-year-old man with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) treated with methotrexate, developed progressive confusion and cerebellar symptoms, and died approximately 2 months later. Neuropathological examination revealed progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) involving the cerebellum and brainstem. The affected tissues displayed intense infiltrations by CD8+ T-cells and microglia. JC virus was localized in oligodendroglia and cerebellar granule cells. This case illustrates unusual localization of inflammatory PML in a patient with RA treated with methotrexate.
