Multiple Cerbral Hemorrhages in HTLV-I-Associated Myelopathy
Neurol 43:412-414, Smith,D.,et al, 1993
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
We describe a 66-year-old woman with long-standing HTLV-I-associated myelopathy who developed multiple parenchymal hemorrhages and whose angiogram suggested cerebral vasculitis.After cyclophosphamide and glucocorticoid therapy,both her acute deficits and chronic paraparesis improved.HTLV-I may be an etiologic agent in isolated angiitis of CNS.
