Reversible bilateral opercular syndrome secondary to AIDS-associated cerebral toxoplasmosis

M P Grassi et al. Ital J Neurol Sci. 1994 Mar.

Abstract

A case of reversible anterior bilateral opercular syndrome (Foix-Chavany-Marie syndrome) secondary to cerebral toxoplasma abscesses is described in a patient with AIDS. The symptoms regressed following antitoxoplasma and antiedema drug therapy. Although this is the first reported AIDS-related case, the syndrome is likely to recur in AIDS sufferers in whom multifocal cerebral lesions are common.
