Deskripsi

Alemtuzumab, one of the very effective immunomodulatory forms of treatment for patients with highly active multiple sclerosis, can also have unexpected side effects. We present a case of cystic echinococcosis causing thrombosis of the inferior vena cava in a female patient after two cycles of alemtuzumab.
