Cerebral tuberculomas developing during treatment of tuberculous meningitis

Lancet
A J LeesJ Marshall

Abstract

Cerebral tuberculomas developed in two adult Asian immigrants during treatment for miliary tuberculosis and tuberculous meningitis. Both were infected by strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis sensitive in vitro to all antituberculous drugs, and no evidence of immunodeficiency was detected. Focal neurological signs appeared and the lesions led to the death of one patient despite maximum treatment. The importance of systemic corticosteroids in controlling the raised intracranial pressure is discussed.

Allergy & Infectious Diseases

Allergies result from the hyperreactivity of the immune system to some environmental substance and can be life-threatening. Infectious diseases are caused by organisms including bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites. They can be transmitted different ways, such as person-to-person. Here is the latest research on allergy and infectious diseases.

Antimicrobial Resistance (ASM)

Antimicrobial resistance poses a significant threat to the continued successful use of antimicrobial agents for the treatment of bacterial infections.
