Cerebral toxoplasmosis remains the most important neurological opportunistic infection and the most common cause of intracerebral mass lesion in patients with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). We report a case of an adult AIDS patient with an atypical pattern of toxoplasma encephalitis, presenting with ventriculitis and obstructive hydrocephalus without any focal parenchymal lesion.
脑弓形虫病仍然是获得性免疫缺陷综合征(AIDS)患者最重要的神经系统机会性感染,也是脑内占位性病变最常见的原因。我们报告一例成年AIDS患者,其弓形虫脑炎表现不典型,以脑室炎和梗阻性脑积水为特征,无任何局灶性实质病变。
