Two cases of cerebral aspergillosis in Tamilians presenting as intracranial space-occupying lesions are reported. The first patient had a left frontal lobe abscess and a specific diagnosis was made by histopathology and isolation of Aspergillus versicolor. He responded well to excision followed by anticonvulsant therapy. In the other, the diagnosis was based on histopathology alone and she died after surgery. These are the first cases reported from Tamil Nadu and probably only one similar case has been reported from India so far.
报告了两例以颅内占位性病变为表现的泰米尔族脑曲霉病病例。首例患者有左侧额叶脓肿,通过组织病理学检查及分离出杂色曲霉做出明确诊断。他在接受切除手术及抗惊厥治疗后反应良好。另一例患者仅依据组织病理学确诊,术后死亡。这些是泰米尔纳德邦首次报告的病例,而且迄今为止印度可能仅报告过一例类似病例。
