F. Philippeau et al., JC virus infection and lympho-plasmocytic infiltration of the central nervous system revealed by a cerebellar syndrome., REV NEUROL, 155(11), 1999, pp. 961-965
We report the case of a 74 year-old woman who had been treated since 8 year
s for a Waldenstrom's disease. She also was affected by a progressive multi
-focal leukoencephalopathy. The interest of this case lies in two principal
features. On the one hand, the clinical and radiological signs were restri
cted to the cerebellum and to the braimstem, on the other hand, brain exami
nation revealed lymphocytes and plasma cells infiltration suggestive of an
associated Sing and Neel syndrome.
