Nine cases comprising seven males and two females with mycetoma of the cranium were studied between January 1990 and June 1997. Streptomyces somaliensis was the most common causative organism. The source of the infection was thought to be known in only three cases. The common mode of presentation was headache and scalp swelling. The next common presentation was epilepsy. Other focal neurological disorders also occur. CT scan findings of the cranium showed osteosclerotic rather than osteolytic changes.
1990年1月至1997年6月期间，对9例颅骨放线菌病患者进行了研究，其中包括7名男性和2名女性。索马里链霉菌是最常见的致病微生物。仅在3例病例中确定了感染源。常见的表现形式是头痛和头皮肿胀。其次常见的表现是癫痫。也会出现其他局灶性神经功能障碍。颅骨CT扫描结果显示为骨质硬化而非骨质溶解改变。
