Abstract: | We report a case of acute near-fatal cerebellar swelling, which was accompanied by multifocal cerebellar necrosis. Acute, near-fatal cerebellar swelling is a rare problem thought to be of parainfectious aetiology. Initiation by multifocal cerebellar necrosis has not been reported so far with this disorder. |
