AbstractProgressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) is an uncommon opportunistic infection that causes focal or multifocal demyelination predominantly in the subcortical white matter. The authors describe the clinical and radiographic features in 2 unusual cases of PML that were initially isolated to the pons. One patient presented clinically with only an isolated sixth cranial nerve palsy.
