Intracranial calcifications are relatively common computed tomographic findings in the field of neurosurgery, and cysticercosis, tuberculosis, HIV, and cryptococcus are acquired intracranial infections typically associated with calcifications. However, intracranial calcification caused by a bacterial brain abscess is rare. Here, we present a rare case of intracranial calcification caused by a b...
A fifty year old man presented to a psychiatric unit with catatonia. He was later found to have a brain abscess in the left frontal region. Brain abscess has not been previously reported to be associated with catatonia.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Neuroinflammatory molecules, including tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin1-beta, lymphocyte function associated molecule-1, and intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1 contribute to the development of brain abscess. We hypothesized that the high fractional anisotropy (FA) in the brain abscess cavity reflects the upregulation of these neuroinflammatory molecules. MA...
Despite advances in antimicrobial and antiviral therapy, meningitis and brain abscess are infections that result in significant morbidity and mortality. A multidisciplinary approach, including intensive care, is often required in the treatment of these infections. Meningitis is defined by the presence of the inflammation of the meninges, with characteristic changes in cerebrospinal fluid. Brain...
Streptococcus constellatus is a microorganism that lives commensally in the oropharyngeal region, urogenital region, and intestinal tract. However, it can cause infection in patients with certain predisposing factors. Rarely, this microorganism can cause a brain abscess. Thalamic localization of brain abscesses is much rarer than abscesses in other locations of the brain. Brain abscess caused b...
A 52-year-old man was admitted with a brain abscess in the left basal ganglia. He had a paradoxical brain embolic mechanism owing to a pulmonary arteriovenous fistula (PAVF) and was diagnosed as having a right-to-left shunt by transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) and transcranial color Doppler (TCD) with saline contrast medium. We determined that the brain abscess was caused by the PAVFs with...
