Cerebellar progressive multifocal leucoencephalopathy identified by the shrimp sign.

Progressive multifocal leucoencephalopathy (PML) is a demyelinating disease caused by the John Cunningham (JC) virus, which may get reactivated under certain immunosuppressive states such as AIDS, immunomodulatory therapy and haematological malignancies. PML has been reported rarely even in immunocompetent individuals where no immunodeficiency was present. PML characteristically involves periventricular and juxtacortical white matter.
