Résumé

A 15-year-old adolescent boy developed subacute ataxia, encephalopathy, ophthalmoplegia, and dysarthria following a sore throat. An MRI examination revealed multifocal enhancing and nonenhancing supratentorial white matter and symmetric brainstem lesions. After 2 additional presentations with worsening symptoms and lesion accumulation, he was ultimately successfully treated with rituximab for his condition.
