A case of reversible encephalopathy during treatment with Amphotericin-B (AMB) is described. The comparison of the clinical course of AMB encephalopathy with total dose of AMB, cranial radiotherapy and MRI data available in previously reported cases, shows that this complication is characterized by a progressive, dose-dependent course, possibly influenced by cranial irradiation.

Abstract

A case of reversible encephalopathy during treatment with Amphotericin-B (AMB) is described. The comparison of the clinical course of AMB encephalopathy with total dose of AMB, cranial radiotherapy and MRI data available in previously reported cases, shows that this complication is characterized by a progressive, dose-dependent course, possibly influenced by cranial irradiation.
