Although tuberculosis (TB) of the central nervous system is quite common, tuberculous pyogenic ventriculitis is not only rare; it is a devastating disease in an immunocompetent patient if left untreated.
We present the case of a 43-year-old man who underwent successful treatment for tuberculous pyogenic ventriculitis that presented with meningeal syndrome and loss of consciousness.
Tuberculous pyogenic ventriculitis is a rare manifestation of intracranial tuberculous infection. Despite advances in imaging techniques, the diagnosis of intraventricular TB is essentially biological.
尽管中枢神经系统结核相当常见,但结核性化脓性脑室炎不仅罕见;如果不治疗,对于免疫功能正常的患者来说,它是一种毁灭性疾病。
我们报告一例43岁男性患者,该患者成功治愈了表现为脑膜综合征和意识丧失的结核性化脓性脑室炎。
结核性化脓性脑室炎是颅内结核感染的一种罕见表现。尽管成像技术有所进步,但脑室内结核的诊断本质上仍依赖生物学检查。
