{Abstract}: BACKGROUND: Cerebral vasculitides are often devastating conditions that require immediate diagnosis and treatment.
METHODS: We report a pathologically proven clinical case of primary central nervous system vasculitis in a 50-year-old man with a diagnosis of relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis after alemtuzumab therapy, which required additional immunosuppression to control this life-threatening condition.
CONCLUSIONS: In patients presenting subacute neurological deterioration after alemtuzumab therapy, primary central nervous system vasculitis should be considered as a differential diagnosis among other autoimmune conditions.
