Actinomycotic brain abscess.
Abstract
A histologically confirmed actinomycotic brain abscess, in a previously healthy female, is reported. CT scan findings of a thick walled multiloculated ring enhancement with smooth inner margin and irregular nodular enhancement of outer margin, along with contiguous patchy enhancing lesion with circular low attenuation areas were suggestive of a chronic granulomatous abscess. Surgical excision and prolonged antibiotic therapy produced a good resolution.
