To the Editor: A 28-year-old man with AIDS was hospitalized because of nausea, vomiting, and dizziness. Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection had been diagnosed in 1991. He had had several opportunistic infections, and a recent CD4 cell count was 27 per cubic millimeter. He had a new left-sided hemiataxia. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with contrast medium revealed a 1-cm-by-1.5-cm ring-enhancing lesion in the left middle cerebellar peduncle, associated with moderate edema (Figure 1A). IgG serologic testing for toxoplasma had previously been reactive.
