Abstract

We report a case of subacute onset of paraparesis in a patient with AIDS. Empiric treatment for toxoplasmosis of the brain and the spinal cord resulted in resolution of the paraparesis. This case highlights the differential diagnosis of toxoplasmosis of the spinal cord and reviews its management in HIV-infected patients.
