[Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy in hemophilia A. Is there a relation to AIDS?].
Progressive multifocal leukencephalopathy (PML) due to Papovavirus is usually combined with a cellular immunodeficiency as a consequence either of a neoproliferative disease or of medical treatment. In the first description of a case of PML in combination with substituted hemophilia A with no known cellular immunodeficiency, possible pathogenetic relations to factor VIII substitution as well as to AIDS, caused by HTLV-III virus, are discussed.
