Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy in multiple myeloma. A literature review and lessons to learn

Ioannis Koutsavlis

Summary: PML is a rare opportunistic infection with high mortality rate, often seen in immunosuppressed individuals. While primarily reported in patients with HIV/AIDS, there is a lack of review on PML in smouldering or treated myeloma patients. The underdiagnosis of PML in MM may indicate the need for more case reports to enrich knowledge in this field.

Progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy and the spectrum of JC virus-related disease

Irene Cortese et al.

Summary: The Review provides an overview of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy and diseases caused by JC virus, discussing emerging immunotherapeutic approaches for increased survival. It highlights the need to reassess PML pathophysiology and clinical course, and the challenges of reversing underlying immunosuppression in the absence of antiviral therapies. Emerging treatments show promise but caution is advised to manage potential complications such as immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome and long-term neurological effects.
