An idiopathic hyperammonaemia syndrome has been reported in, and following chemotherapy for, various haematological malignancies as well as following bone marrow transplantation. It should be considered in the differential diagnosis of any neurological deterioration, and we describe a further case associated with an allogeneic peripheral blood progenitor cell transplant (allo-PBPCT).
