Aspergillus species are second only to Candidosis as the most common cause of fungal infections of the central nervous system in immunocompromised patients. Very rare is the sole abscessual cerebral localization in nonimmunocompromised patients. Successful treatment of Aspergillus brain abscess has been reported only few times. A case of Aspergillus "primitive" brain abscess treated by surgical therapy associated with local and general mirated antifungal therapy is described. The long-term survival with complete clinical and radiological recovery is reported.
曲霉菌属是免疫功能低下患者中枢神经系统真菌感染的最常见病因，仅次于念珠菌病。在非免疫功能低下患者中，单纯脑脓肿定位极为罕见。仅有少数几例关于成功治疗曲霉菌性脑脓肿的报道。本文描述了一例通过手术治疗联合局部及全身抗真菌治疗的“原发性”曲霉菌性脑脓肿病例。报道了患者实现临床和影像学完全康复并长期存活的情况。
