AB  - Presented is the first case of acute immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome 
      (IRIS)-associated cryptococcal meningoencephalitis in a patient on natalizumab 
      for multiple sclerosis. The patient developed acute cerebral edema after 
      initiation of amphotericin B. We propose several mechanisms that explain the 
      acuity of IRIS in this specific patient population and suggest possible 
      therapies.
