Progressive multifocal leucoencephalopathy is a white matter infection caused by a papovavirus. Immunocompromised patients are predominantly affected. We report the case of a 74-year old woman with abdominal lymphoma resistant to chemotherapy. The diagnosis was suggested by cerebral CT and NMR images and was confirmed at postmortem pathological examination. The contribution of complementary examinations to the diagnosis is discussed in the light of recently published studies.
