A 77-year-old man developed diplopia, gait ataxia, and paresthesia. A clinical examination also revealed ophthalmoplegia, facial palsy, ataxia of the limbs and trunk, and reduced deep tender reflexes. Laboratory and electrophysiological studies revealed albuminocytological dissociation and demyelination. He was diagnosed as Miller-Fisher syndrome and received intravenous immunoglobulin therapy. His clinical symptoms deteriorated at 12 weeks after onset. We diagnosed acute-onset chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy, and which the patient recovered from following corticosteroid therapy.

Posttransplantation lymphoproliferative disease (PTLD) is an important form of posttransplant malignancy and is typically associated with Epstein-Barr virus (EBV). Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) is a demyelination disease caused by infection of the John Cunningham (JC) virus. Both PTLD and PML occur in the setting of an immunosuppressive state. Differentiating PTLD from PML is important because PTLD can be treated by reducing immunosuppressant agents or anti-B-cell antibody therapy. We report a case of EBV-related PTLD in a patient with latent JC virus.

Hypoglycemic encephalopathy is a rare problem among diabetic patients who are receiving treatment with insulin or other glucose-lowering drugs. The MRIs of patients with hypoglycemic encephalopathy commonly show scattered lesions in the cerebral cortex, hippocampus and basal ganglia, but lesions in the cerebellum or brain stem are extremely rare. A 44-year-old alcoholic woman without diabetes was admitted with a semicomatose mentality and seizure with severe hypoglycemic encephalopathy with extensive brain lesions seen on MRI at the middle cerebellar peduncle and midbrain, as well as in the other brain areas.
