Abstract
We describe the case of a human immunodeficiency virus-infected 34-yea r-old man with progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML). His c ase displayed unusual features, including a bizarre movement disorder, predominant involvement of the subcortical U fibers on neuropathologi c examination, and the absence of MRI abnormalities suggestive of PML. Anatomic-clinical correlations are discussed.
