Abstract

Aseptic meningitis may rarely occur with the use of OKT3 murin monoclonal antibody, which is an immunosuppressive agent for the prevention and treatment of acute rejection in solid transplantation. We present a patient with aseptic meningitis, developed during OKT3 therapy, who shows characteristic clinical features and CSF findings consistent with OKT3 associated aseptic meningitis.
