Abstract

Progressive Multifocal Leucoencephalopathy (PML) is a rare neurological disorder. The clinical suspicion about this disease in
the setting of an immunosuppressive patient even in presence of vague neurological symptoms has to be very high . We
describe here two cases of PML a post renal transplant patient and second elderly patient with no underlying
immunosuppression.
Keywords: PML, JC virus, Renal transplant.
