Intracranial tuberculoma: MR imaging.

Only registered users can translate articles

MR studies of 6 patients with intracranial tuberculoma are reviewed. All patients also underwent CT scans which showed hypo- or isodense lesions with abnormal enhancement following contrast administration. MR showed lesions with prolongation of the T1 relaxation time in every case. On the

MR imaging of intracranial tuberculomas.

Only registered users can translate articles

Eight patients with intracranial tuberculomas were studied with CT and magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. Large, ring enhancing, solid lesions on CT showed low intensity on T2-weighted images and intermediate intensity on T1-weighted images. Small lesions, with ring enhancement on CT, showed central

The neuroradiological findings in a case of cerebral tuberculoma.

Only registered users can translate articles

This paper describes the neuroradioloigical findings in a case of cerebral tuberculoma. Computed tomography demonstrated a mass in contact with the cranial bone with marked contrast enhancement and accompanied by perifocal cerebral edema. External carotid angiography revealed a homogenous stain

Quantitative magnetic resonance techniques in the evaluation of intracranial tuberculomas.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To evaluate intracranial tuberculomas using quantitative magnetic resonance (MR) techniques such as T2 relaxometry, magnetization transfer (MT), and diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI). METHODS Thirty-three patients with intracranial tuberculomas (histologically confirmed in 22) were

Evolution of brain tuberculomas under standard antituberculous treatment.

Only registered users can translate articles

The treatment of brain tuberculomas is primarily medical. Surgery, excision or biopsy, is generally performed when the diagnosis is in doubt or there is no response to medical therapy. The aim of this study was to determine the radiological evolution of intracranial tuberculomas under standard

Multiple intracranial tuberculomas mimicking granulocytic sarcomas in acute myeloid leukemia.

Only registered users can translate articles

The diagnosis of incracranial tuberculoma in immune-compromised hosts is often difficult because conventional magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of tuberculoma reveals various findings and neurologic symptoms are not typical. Here, we report a case of a 54-yr old man with multiple intracranial

Tuberculoma of the brain: a series of 16 cases treated with anti-tuberculosis drugs.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To describe the clinical presentation, radiological findings and outcome of treatment with antituberculosis drugs in 16 cases of intracranial tuberculoma. METHODS Consecutive cases admitted with tuberculoma to the National Center for Neurological Diseases in Khartoum, Sudan, were included

A surgical case of cerebellar tuberculoma caused by a paradoxical reaction while on therapy for tuberculosis spondylitis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Background

A paradoxical reaction (PR) is a phenomenon in which the primary tuberculous lesion worsens or another de novo tuberculous lesion appears while on anti-tuberculosis therapy. Here, we report a rare case of cerebellar tuberculoma caused by a PR during therapy for

Tuberculoma of the cerebellum--case report.

Only registered users can translate articles

A 25-year-old female presented with a 1-month history of headache and vomiting. Computed tomography revealed several enhanced nodules with surrounding edema in the right cerebellum. A T2-weighted magnetic resonance image showed heterogeneous high signal intensity throughout the right cerebellar

Choroidal tuberculoma with membranous glomerulonephritis.

Only registered users can translate articles

We report treatment of a 24-year-old man with membranous glomerulonephritis (MGN) who developed a solitary choroidal tuberculoma in association with miliary tuberculosis during steroid therapy. In June 1995, the patient had developed nephrotic syndrome. He had refused renal biopsy at that time. So

Brain CT and MRI findings in 100 consecutive patients with intracranial tuberculoma.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE The characteristics of intracranial tuberculoma on computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are not well known. The authors reviewed the features of tuberculoma on CT scans and MRI. The authors also correlated the MRI characteristics on various pulse sequences with

Radiological Follow-up of a Cerebral Tuberculoma with a Paradoxical Response Mimicking a Brain Tumor.

Only registered users can translate articles

We report a case of a paradoxical response of a tuberculoma in the brain mimicking a brain tumor. A 76-year-old woman presented with a 2 week history of headache, dysarthia, and orthopnea. Brain magnetic resonance images (MRI) revealed two rim-enhancing lesions on the pons and occipital lobe, and

Role of Immuno-Polymerase Chain Reaction (I-PCR) in Resolving Diagnostic Dilemma Between Tuberculoma and Neurocysticercosis: A Case Report.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Tuberculoma and neurocysticercosis (NCC) often show similar clinical and neuroimaging features. Differential diagnosis of these 2 diseases is imperative, as tuberculoma is an active infection that requires immediate anti-tubercular therapy (ATT). CASE REPORT We present the case of a

[A case of tuberculous encephalopathy with multiple intracranial tuberculomas].

Only registered users can translate articles

A case of 56-year-old man with tuberculous encephalopathy following pulmonary tuberculosis was reported. Computed tomography (CT) revealed low density virtually confined to the white matter of the cerebral hemisphere. Contrast enhanced CT demonstrated intracranial multiple spotted lesions, all of

[Multiple cerebral tuberculomas presenting with paradoxical expansion: a case report].

Only registered users can translate articles

A 24-year-old male presented with headache. He had been treated with antituberculous drugs for 19 months. MRI revealed 4 intracranial Gd-DTPA enhanced lesions surrounded by massive edema in the right frontal, both occipital and left basal ganglionic regions. Digital subtraction angiography showed no
