Cyclosporine A (CyA)-related cortical blindness is an uncommon complication of CyA therapy in patients undergoing liver transplantation. Characteristically, neurological symptoms associated with CyA treatment usually regress after cyclosporine withdrawal. We present a case of a liver transplant recipient in whom discontinuation of CyA therapy has resulted in only partial clinical improvement, and cortical blindness remains after 1 year of follow-up. The evolution of cerebral magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings over time in this form of CyA leukoencephalopathy is also described.
