چکیده

Introduction: CNS toxoplasmosis may involve patients receiving immunosuppressive drugs. Due to sharing common symptoms, it is difficult to distinguish neurotoxoplasmosis from other CNS disorders. This report investigated an unusual neurotoxoplasmosis in a patient with glomerulonephritis receiving rituximab. Conclusions: In patients treated with rituximab, neurological manifestations can be a definitive diagnosis for cerebral toxoplasmosis. Since it is a serious and even fatal disease, patients with unknown neurological symptoms should receive empirical treatment.
