  • Title: Cerebellar abscesses: a review of seventeen cases.
    Author: Morgan H, Wood MW.
    Journal: Surg Neurol; 1975 Feb; 3(2):93-6. PubMed ID: 1118810.
    Abstract:
    Seventeen cases of cerebellar abscesses are reviewed. The incidence was 18% of all brain abscesses. Thirteen were males, and four were females. Headache was the most common presenting symptom. These abscesses have a better prognosis for survival and neurological function than supratentorial abscesses. They are less likely to be encapsulated. Continued neurological decline in the face of adequate surgical treatment of a single abscess should alert the physcian to the possibility of a second abscess.
