Abstract:
Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) is a fatal demyelinating disease that occurs in immunocompromised hosts. We describe two patients with biopsy-proved PML who showed improvement clinically and radiologically after medical therapy. These cases reveal that interval improvement can in rare instances be consistent with a diagnosis of PML.
