Numerous Asymptomatic Brain Tuberculomas Complicated by Fatal Tuberculous Meningitis.

Tuberculosis (TB) is still one of the most challenging infectious diseases worldwide. Coinfection with HIV increases the likelihood of extrapulmonary involvement, including the tuberculosis of the central nervous system (CNS-TB). CNS-TB often presents as tuberculomas or tuberculous meningitis. Although tuberculomas can be single or multiple, asymptomatic carriage of numerous tuberculomas is seldom reported. We present a case of a 55-year-old man who carried at least 34 tuberculomas of different sizes asymptomatically before developing and succumbing to tuberculous meningitis. Furthermore, we highlight several possible public health challenges that might have complicated his clinical course, suggesting that future studies also focus on these variables alongside more traditional clinical issues.
