Abstract

Cytokine release syndrome with rituximab has been reported in certain diseases, however, it is rarely reported in MS patients treated with rituximab. The treating physician should suspect the syndrome when typical signs and symptoms appear. © 2021 The Authors. Clinical Case Reports published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.
