Abstract

We describe two patients who had tuberculomas that were initially misdiagnosed as neurosarcoidosis, leading to prolonged steroid therapy before initiation of antituberculous medications. Neither patient was infected with the human immunodeficiency virus, and one of the patients had a negative tuberculosis skin test.

摘要

我们描述了两名患有结核瘤的患者，他们最初被误诊为神经结节病，导致在开始抗结核药物治疗之前接受了长时间的类固醇治疗。两名患者均未感染人类免疫缺陷病毒，其中一名患者结核菌素皮肤试验呈阴性。
