case_images: Brain and spinal MRI performed at the time of presentation revealed a total of 10 lesions, most of them periventricular (Figure 1D1), ovoid-shape in appearance, >1 cm in size, and 2 infratentorial lesions (in right cerebellar peduncle and in the pons), 3 of which presented gadolinium enhancement. At this time, there were no other signs suggestive of infectious etiology (Figure 1D1). HSV-1 encephalitis (Figure 1D2). He was started on acyclovir, 6 sessions of PLEX every other day, 1,000 mg MP IV for 5 days, and two doses of 1,000 mg rituximab IV separated by 2 weeks.
