Patient #23 Question 5 Alexia without Agraphia Gerstmann's syndrome consists of dysgraphia, dyscalculia, finger agnosia, and right-left confusion. It results from lesions involving the dominant angular gyrus. Central alexia is not part of Gerstmann's syndrome but may be seen in conjunction with these findings in the complete angular gyrus syndrome. Department of Neurology, Baylor College of Medicine

Med., Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy in a Patient with Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS) Manifesting Gerstmann's Syndrome H IROSHI S AITO, H IDEAKI S AKAI, K AZUO F UJIHARA, K ANAE F UJIHARA and Y ASUTO I TOYAMA The Departments of Neurology and Internal Medicine, National Nishitaga Hospital, Department of Neurology, Tohoku University School of Medicine, Sendai 982-8555 We reported a case of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) via multiple blood transfusions, who manifested progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) about 18 months after the development of AIDS. PML initiated with right hemiparesis, dysphasia, and Gerstmann's syndrome and resulted in death within 2 months after the onset. Neuroimaging examinations revealed white matter lesions mainly in the left posterior parietal lobe. The cortical gray matter also showed abnormal signal intensity. Peripheral CD4 Iymphocyte count was 8l/ m l. Routine cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) examinations were negative. CSF antibodies against herpes simplex virus, varicella-zoster virus, cytomegalovirus, Epstein-Barr virus as well as serum antibody against toxoplasma gondii were negative. Though autopsy or biopsy of the brain was not performed, JC virus genomes were detected in the CSF sample by a polymerase chain reaction, and their sequencing showed unique alterations of the regulatory regions, characteristic to PML-type JC virus. Key words AIDS; Gerstmann's syndrome; progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy; JC virus isolation from CSF; PML-type regulatory regions
