Legend of the figure e-1
Evolution of brain MRI of patient 1: two (M2), four (M4) and thirty-five (M35) months
after Progressive Multifocal Leukoencephalopathy (PML) diagnosis.
Modified from figure 1, from Maillart E, et al. Fingolimod to treat severe multiple scle-
rosis after natalizumab-associated progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy: a valid
option? Multiple sclerosis 2014;20:505-509.
Fluid-attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) (a and e) and T1-weighted sequence with
gadolinium (b, c, d, f)
• IRIS : FLAIR (a) and T1 weighted-sequence with gadolinium (b): ontrast enhancement sur-
rounding PML lesions.
• multiple sclerosis activity: T1-weighted sequence with gadolinium (c, d)
• On fingolimod: FLAIR (e) and T1 weighted-sequence with gadolinium (f): no progression
of PML lesion, severe atrophy.
MS: multiple sclerosis; MRI: magnetic resonance imaging; PML: progressive multifocal
leukoencephalopathy; IRIS: immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome
