The methods used successfully to examine pus from abscesses of the central nervous system are described. The association between direct inoculation of intracranial pus into a liquid anaerobic culture medium and the isolation of viable bacteria is emphasised. Cultural methods for the recognition of the streptococci associated with brain abscess and methods for the assay of antimicrobial drugs in...
The authors report an unusual case involving a 38 year-old man who developed a intracranial abscess caused by Aspergillus of the parietal lobe. Cerebral aspergilloma of an initial pulmonary origin developed in a patient with "Fungus Ball" secondary to tuberculosis sequelae. The diagnosis was made through the isolation of Aspergillus from the secretion of the brain abscesses. The patient was tre...
The case of a 64 year old woman with diverticulitis complicated by a metastatic cerebral abscess is reported. Presentation was atypical and investigations were misleading; the computed tomographic scan was interpreted as showing a glioma. This case demonstrates that malignancy should never be assumed and the importance of making a histological diagnosis. Once the abscess was drained the patient...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Surgically or conservatively treated brain abscesses may resolve, or pus may re-accumulate, requiring further intervention or treatment change. We hypothesized that diffusion-weighted (DW) imaging is useful in depicting features of abscesses related to therapeutic success or failure. METHODS Conventional contrast-enhanced T1- and T2-weighted imaging and DW imaging were ...
Brain abscess actually remains a threatening pathology despite of medical progress. A delayed brain abscess after an acoustic neuroma surgery by translabyrinthine approach is extremely rare in literature. We describe a case with petrous cavity and cerebellum abscesses by Streptococcus milleri that occurred 3.5 years after the surgical removal of an acoustic neuroma in an 11-year-old child. A hi...
Aim: To investigate new factors which influence intracranial otogenic complications in adults. Study Design: Retrospective study Place and duration of study: Department ENT, Services Hospital Lahore from 1st October 2021 to 31st March 2022. Methodology: Fifty patients were analyzed COVID times (2020-2021) with for determination the onset this disease complication. Hundred assessed time period 2...
Nocardia cerebral abscesses are rare intracranial lesions. They account for only 1% to 2% of all brain abscesses. They are important in immunocompromised patients, but rarely occur in immunocompetent hosts. Here, we present a case of multiple primary brain abscesses with Nocardia in an immunocompetent patient, who was treated successfully with oral antibiotic therapy.
Medical University of Vienna Bacterial Infections of the Brain and Spine The fact that delay in diagnosis of CNS infections may lead to irreversible neurological deficits increases the responsibility of radiologists to promptly recognize different infections in the brain and also in the spinal canal. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the primary imaging method for the evaluation and monitorin...
Dental carries are frequent and can progress to central nervous system infections if untreated. A 17-year old patient presented with fever and unconsciousness. He, who irregularly used oral antibiotic for dental abscess, had fever, unconsciousness, exophtalmus, hyperemia and edema on left side, and meningismus. He had no focal deficit. On laboratory, leukocyte, 22,000/mm; C-reactive protein, 17...
OBIECTIVE AND IMPORTANCE: We pr€sent a case report of a patient wilh a left frontal brain abccess. Cultures obtained fiom the abecess at lhe time of suqgery were idenlified as dental flora knovm to establish a synergistic relationslrip in polymicrobial infections. Ihis type of synergistic relalionship nukes the clearance of an infeclion more difficult for an intact immune sydem. A serum immunog...
