Methotrexate leukoencephalopathy mimicking cerebral abscess on CT brain scan.

K J Poskitt1, P Steinbok, O Flodmark.   

Abstract

A case is reported of methotrexate leukoencephalopathy presenting as an intracerebral rim-enhancing mass lesion of CT scan. The implications of this rare presentation of methotrexate leukoencephalopathy for therapy are discussed.
