Abstract

Brain abscess is a focal intracranial infection that may present as a life-threatening emergency. Brain abscess can present with a wide range of clinical syndromes, and it results in high morbidity and mortality worldwide. Here we describe a rare case of the polymicrobial right parietal brain abscess, especially associated with in a 59-year-old male who presented with acute onset of left-sided weakness and altered mental status. The patient underwent surgical treatment (burrhole aspiration) and antibiotics with good improvement. Prompt diagnosis and treatment are critical for brain abscess and ultimately lead to better patient outcomes.

摘要

脑脓肿是一种局灶性颅内感染，可能表现为危及生命的急症。脑脓肿可呈现多种临床综合征，在全球范围内导致高发病率和死亡率。在此，我们描述一例罕见的多微生物性右顶叶脑脓肿病例，尤其发生在一名59岁男性身上，该患者急性起病，出现左侧肢体无力和精神状态改变。患者接受了手术治疗（钻孔抽吸）并使用了抗生素，病情有明显改善。对脑脓肿进行及时诊断和治疗至关重要，最终可使患者获得更好的预后。
