| Description |
PML is a common central nervous system opportunistic infection in HIV/AIDS that mostly involves the cerebral hemispheres. Brainstem involvement by PML is rare but is being seen with increased frequency in the HIV/AIDS population. We describe a unique presentation of PML with skew deviation and hemiparesis as the first opportunistic infection in a patient with HIV/AIDS. |
