Abstract:
:A series of eight patients with cerebral tuberculoma seen between 1980 and 1990 is reported. Headache was the leading clinical finding, followed by focal neurological findings and seizures. Papilledema was the most uniform examination finding associated with intracranial hypertension. Five patients had another localization of tuberculosis: three had tuberculous meningitis, one had tuberculous pericarditis and only one had associated active pulmonary involvement. Cerebrospinal fluid was investigated in seven patients. In three patients data of tuberculous meningitis were found, with positive culture in Löwenstein medium. Two patients had the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome. All patients received medical treatment with good response, except in one who developed paradoxical expansion of the lesions after two months of therapy.
