Fibrosis and stenosis of the long penetrating cerebral arteries: The cause of the white matter pathology in cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and
leukoencephalopathy. Brain Pathol 2004;14:358-64.
Global Markets Direct's, 'Progressive Multifocal
Leukoencephalopathy - Pipeline Review, H1 2016', provides an overview of the Progressive Multifocal
Leukoencephalopathy pipeline landscape.
Differential diagnoses: Global hypoxic/ischemic insult, cerebral vasculopathy, posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES), hypoglycemic encephalopathy, progressive multifocal
leukoencephalopathy (PML) and acute disseminated encephalomyelitis (ADEM).
Herein, we describe the first reported Japanese case of reversible posterior
leukoencephalopathy syndrome (RPLS) that developed on receiving sunitinib therapy for metastatic RCC.
They discuss the history of viral infections of the central nervous system, the basics of virology, neuroepidemiology and the epidemiology of viral infections of the nervous system, the clinical approach to the syndromes of viral encephalitis, myelitis, and meningitis, laboratory diagnosis of viral infection, neuroimaging, viral neuropathogenesis, and the neuropathology of viral infections; DNA viruses like the herpes simplex virus, varicella-zoster, the Epstein-Barr virus, cytomegalovirus, human herpesvirus 6, and progressive multifocal
leukoencephalopathy; RNA viruses like West Nile and St.
DISCUSSION: MLC is a rare neurodegenerative disorder characterized by infantile-onset megalencephaly, cerebral
leukoencephalopathy, and delayed onset of slowly progressive neurologic dysfunction.
The diagnosis of CADASIL should be taken into account in patients with lacunar infarcts,
leukoencephalopathy and migraine with an atypical aura even in the absence of white matter lesions in the anterior temporal poles [39].
Adam began working with personal trainer Jim Haugh after recovering from the infection diagnosed as progressive multifocal
leukoencephalopathy (PML).
Neurotoxicity, usually characterized by peripheral neuropathies, loss of taste, seizures,
leukoencephalopathy, reversible posterior
leukoencephalopathy syndrome (RPLS), and muscle cramps have been reported.
This condition is also known as reversible posterior
leukoencephalopathy syndrome, reversible posterior cerebral oedema syndrome and reversible occipital parietal encephalopathy.
