Computed tomographic appearance of methotrexate-induced necrotizing leukoencephalopathy.

J E Bjorgen, L H Gold.   

Abstract

A case of methotrexate-induced brain damage is presented. Computed tomography (CT) demonstrated a high-density mass lesion with a low-density area in the white matter which pathologically represented a large area of acute necrotizing cerebritis. CT appearance was indistinguishable from brain abscess.
