Etiology of cortical and white matter lesions in cyclosporin-A and FK-506 neurotoxicity.

Abstract

Lesion location in CsA and FK-506 neurotoxicity may depend on the presence or type of conditioning used before bone marrow transplantation. Nontransplant patients or those conditioned with total-body irradiation develop white matter lesions, whereas those conditioned with chemotherapy develop mixed cortical and white matter lesions.
