Brain involvement in hydatid disease occurs in 1-2% of all Echinococcus granulosus infections. Secondary infection of intracranial hydatid cysts is extremely rare.
In this case report, we present a secondary infection of an intracranial hydatid cyst due to Clostridium ramosum, which is an extremely rare infectious pathogen in neurosurgical practice, and a potential pitfall in neuroradiological investigations.
脑包虫病在所有细粒棘球绦虫感染中占1%-2%。颅内包虫囊肿的继发感染极为罕见。
在本病例报告中,我们呈现了一例由多枝梭菌引起的颅内包虫囊肿继发感染,多枝梭菌在神经外科实践中是一种极为罕见的感染病原体,也是神经放射学检查中的一个潜在陷阱。
