Abstract:

Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a common cause of bacterial meningitis in areas with high HIV prevalence and its diagnosis often is delayed in industrialized nations. Children (particularly infants) and immunocompromised persons are at higher risk of developing TB meningitis. Lymphocytic meningitis, high CSF protein, and (in children) frequently an abnormal chest radiograph should raise clinician index of suspicion for TB meningitis. Neuroimaging may show hydrocephalus, basilar leptomeningeal enhancement, ischemia, and/or tuberculomas. Prompt recognition and initiation of antituberculous antibio

Abstract:

Infections of the central nervous system (CNS) are amongst the most severe of all fungal infections. Cryptococcus neoformans is the commonest cause of adult meningitis in many countries with high HIV prevalence. C gattii is usually seen in the tropics in apparently immunocompetent patients. Meningitis is also caused by Candida in premature babies, and by the dimorphic fungi in endemic areas. CNS infections with Aspergillus, the mucormycetes, and less common moulds usually present as intracranial mass lesions in immunocompromised hosts. Early suspicion, prompt imaging, and appropriate samples f

Abstract:

Fungal infections of the central nervous system are important because of their increasing incidence and the growing population of at-risk individuals. CNS spread is usually hematogenous but rarely can be due to direct invasion from adjacent structures. Morphology of the infecting fungus may predict the regions affected and the lesion phenotype. Meningitis and mass lesions are the most frequent. This chapter reviews the current understanding of the neuropathogenesis of fungal infections with mention of histopathological and imaging correlations. Important aspects of management are also discusse

Abstract:

Broad-spectrum antibiotics—those that are bactericidal and able to penetrate the blood–brain barrier—must be administered to any patient with a suspected infection of the central nervous system (CNS). Antimicrobials should be selected with consideration of spectrum of activity, pharmacokinetics, mechanism of action, and need to be administered in a timely fashion. This chapter discusses antibiotics that provide good penetration of the central nervous system, and appropriate doses for these infections are outlined. Antiviral therapy for CNS infections is limited but complex. Antimicrobial thera

Abstract:

Nervous system involvement occurs in 10% to 15% of patients infected with Borrelia burgdorferi, B. afzelii, or B. garinii, the tick-borne spirochetes responsible for Lyme disease and its European counterparts. Common clinical manifestations include lymphocytic meningitis, facial and other cranial neuropathies, and painful mononeuropathies such as Lyme radiculitis. Diagnosis requires appropriate clinical, epidemiological, and laboratory evidence. Appropriately interpreted serologic testing is highly reliable; cerebrospinal fluid examination is often informative if the central nervous system is

Abstract:

Meningitis is defined as inflammation of the brain meninges, characterized clinically by inflammatory cells in CSF. When there is concurrent parenchymal brain involvement the term meningoencephalitis is used, meningoencephalomyelitis implies that there is spinal cord involvement too.Although increased cellularity in the CSF, or pleocytosis, is traditionally considered the hallmark of meningitis, some organisms, particularly fungi, can cause meningitis without a pleocytosis, especially in the immunocompromised. The advent of more sensitive methods of detecting viral nucleic acid in the CSF such

Abstract:

The video in this chapter discusses infections of the central nervous system (CNS), meningitis including its symptoms (fever, headache, nuchal rigidity, altered level of consciousness), its causes (bacterial, fungal, viral, or aseptic), and how the CSF profile provides clues to the etiology. The chapter also discusses encephalitis, its symptoms (seizures, other focal neurologic symptoms). Patients with Herpes Simplex Encephalitis may show T2 hyperintensities in the anterior temporal lobes and limbic structures on MRI. CSF may show xanthochromia and positive PCR for HSV1 or HSV2.

Abstract:

Despite advances in antimicrobial therapy, central nervous system infections have a high morbidity and mortality. Most pathogens reach the brain by haematogenous spread following invasion through the mucosal surface of the nasopharynx. The cerebrospinal fluid inflammatory response is responsible for most of the deleterious effects of the infection. Understanding this response has allowed a more rational approach to therapy. Patients may present with non-specific features, especially neonates, infants, post-neurosurgical patients, and the elderly. This chapter will review the epidemiology, path

Abstract:

Evaluation of cerebrospinal fluid is of essential importance in the diagnosis of central nervous system infections, with a major role in the diagnosis of meningitis and encephalitis. In bacterial and viral meningitis, CSF evaluation is usually straightforward, and well-defined serological and molecular techniques are available for CSF examination in many of the more common viral encephalitides. This is in contrast to CSF evaluation in cases of tuberculous and chronic meningitis, in which organisms may be difficult to detect by culture or polymerase chain methods or antigen detection.

Dermoid cysts tend to occur in midline locations. Both are derived from embryonal tissue and have classic imaging findings on computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Epidermoid tumors and dermoid cysts are benign and grow slowly, although epidermoid cysts can undergo malignant transformation.

More than 100 serotypes of nonpoliovirus EVs are described and are associated with a wide variety of diseases, ranging from respiratory infections, nonspecific febrile illnesses, herpangina, and hand-foot-and-mouth disease to meningitis, encephalitis, paralytic diseas
