We report an instance of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy in
which cytarabine administration was successful as demonstrated by clinical
course and follow-up computerized tomography studies. In this case, simian
virus 40 (SV40) antigen was demonstrated in CSF cells by the indirect
immunofluorescence technique.
