Abstract

The review provides modern understanding of the pathogenesis of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML), a severe and potentially fatal form of multiple-lesion disorder of the brain white matter. Information about the frequency of its development in patients with disease-modifying treatment of multiple sclerosis is analyzed. The algorithms of optimization of PML risks in this category of patients with multiple sclerosis are described in detail. Summarized are the data on most significant PML biomarkers, the search for which is currently under way in many centers across the world. The first case of PML in Russia is briefly described.
