متن کاملUnusual presentation of sarcoidosis: solitary intracranial mass lesion mimicking an intracranial neoplasm: a case report
Sarcoidosis is a multisystem disease of unknown cause and with a worldwide distribution. Involvement of the central nervous system occurs in a relatively small number of patients with sarcoidosis. Isolated neurosarcoidosis without signs of systemic disease however is a rare. In this report, we present an unusual case of neurosarcoidosis with intra cranial mass mimicking radiologically a glioma....
متن کاملIntracranial Fungal Granuloma Mimicking Neoplastic Lesion: Diagnostic Dilemma and Role of Voriconazole as Treatment Strategy
ABSTRACT Fungal infections of the central nervous system (CNS) usually present as subacute meningitis or intracranial space occupying lesion with mass effect on surrounding structures and consequent focal neurological deficits. Intracranial fungal granulomas are often misdiagnosed clinically and radiologically as neoplastic lesions. Biopsy of the lesion is the only reliable technique to estab...
