متن کاملA fulminant case of JC virus encephalopathy supporting a novel syndrome associated with JC virus infection of cortical neurons
The JC virus ( JCV) is well known for causing progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), a potentially fatal, demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (CNS). PML almost exclusively affects immunosuppressed patients, whereas it is rare in immunocompetent subjects. Recently, a new clinical entity, named JCV encephalopathy ( JCVE), has been observed. We present the case of a 62-y...
