摘要
We assessed survival in AIDS-related progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) and the effect of cytarabine and antiretroviral therapy in a retrospective analysis of a series of consecutive 35 patients with AIDS-related PML in an academic AIDS referral center over ¶15 years. Treatment regimens consisted of highly active antiretroviral treatment (HAART), intravenous cytarabine, or both. Median survival after diagnosis in the overall series was 88 days. Patients with low CD4 cell count tended to have shorter survival. Seven patients (20%) had prolonged survival (> 1 year). Cytarabine did not affect survival. Seven patients were treated with HAART, which did not significantly improve survival. We conclude that the prognosis of AIDS-related PML is still poor, with a median survival of ¶3 months.
