A neurologist's approach to the immunosuppressed patient.

Correspondence to: Dr I Ormerod, Department of Neurology, Frenchay Hospital, Bristol, UK; ian.ormerod@ north-bristol.swest.nhs.uk _________________________ I t is not unusual to be asked for a neurological assessment of a patient with some form of immune suppression. Most patients will have an acquired disorder of the immune system and are the focus of this review (table 1). We shall not discuss the neurological consequences of HIV, as this is the subject of a separate article in this supplement (see p i29), nor those with rarer inherited immune deficiency as their investigation and treatment is such a highly specialised area.
