Abstract
We describe the clinical case and MRI findings of a patient with acquired immune deficiency syndrome and pathologically confirmed cytomegalovirus encephalitis. Prevalent brainstem and cerebellar signs together with almost exclusive involvement as seen on MRI of posterior fossa structures at the onset of the symptoms were the main features of our case.
