Abstract:
We report a case of transient neurologic toxicity secondary to tacrolimus. The clinical and imaging findings are reported
and their subsequent regression after interruption of therapy in the patient following a bone-marrow transplant is also described.
The etiology of the neurotoxicity and its analogy with other immunosuppressant agents are discussed.
