Pseudallescheria boydii and its asexual state Scedosporium apiospermum is a well known opportunistic pathogen among immunocompromised patients. However it is rare in immunocompetent patients. The optimum management of this infection is still not clear. The new azoles may show better efficacy than amphotericin B and additional surgery may play a pivotal role. We report a case of Pseudallescheria...

Primary Central Nervous System T- Cell Lymphoma of the Brain in An Immunocompetent Patient central nervous system (PCNS) T-cell lymphoma is a rare disease and rarer if it seen immunocompetent patients. The PCNS makes up 1-7% primary brain tumors. accounts for about 2% all almost 99% are immunocompromised patients (Latta et al 2010, Batchelor 2003). Here, we report case an elderly patient who im...
