    Abstract2 cases of disorders of craniofacial nerves resulting from progressive multifocal leucoencephalopathy are described. Clinical symptoms occurred as facial paralysis, hypaesthesia, hemianopsia and deafness. In both patients, the impairment of the central nervous system (CNS) preceded indicative AIDS symptoms. Both patients died about 3 months after the first CNS symptoms had been diagnosed. Clinical and neurohistopathological findings as well as differential diagnoses are discussed.
