Abstract

|
|
Intracranial tuberculoma is very rare nowadays. It is very difficult to differentiate tuberculoma from other space-occupying lesions. CT and MRI and intensive systemic review is very useful to diagnose intracranial tuberculoma.
This case of patient had several symptoms of hemiparesis, headache. And we supposed that his symptoms were due to cerebrovascular accident at entry. But he was diagnosed as tuberculoma with brain edema in cerebrum. After treating him with mannitolization, acupuncture and herb medicine, his symptoms were remarkably improved. So we report this case of tuberculoma in cerebrum.
