Posttransplant autoimmune encephalitis [PDF]
The causes of encephalopathy in the posttransplant setting are diverse and include medication toxicity (e.g., posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome), infections (e.g., human herpes virus type 6 [HHV-6]), and neoplastic disease (posttransplant lymphoproliferative disorder). Autoimmune etiologies are not well recognized in this setting, although a
