Abstract

La leucoencefalopatía multifocal progresiva (LMP) es una enfermedad poco común y catastrófica que afecta la mielina, la capa protectora de los nervios en el cerebro, causando daño en la sustancia blanca cerebral. Esta enfermedad es ocasionada por el virus JC, un tipo de poliomavirus humano que generalmente se contrae durante la infancia y solo conduce a esta afección. La LMP es más frecuente en personas con sistemas inmunológicos debilitados, especialmente aquellos que son portadores del virus de la inmunodeficiencia humana (VIH). Las lesiones desmielinizantes provocan una variedad de síntomas neurológicos que requieren un diagnóstico preciso y confiable para distinguirla de otras condiciones.
