    Author: Li ND.
    Journal: Zhonghua Wai Ke Za Zhi; 1989 Aug; 27(8):472-3, 509. PubMed ID: 2620601.
    Abstract:
    7 cases of cryptococcal granuloma of the brain are reported. All were confirmed pathologically by autopsy or operation. The granuloma involved not only cerebral hemisphere but also the basal ganglion, hypothalamus, cerebellum and brain stem. It's clinical character and CSF examination are closely similar to the findings of tuberculous meningitis, and the larger toruloma is easy to be mistaken as brain tumor. The authors introduced several valuable methods of diagnosis of these patients. The indications of operation as well as medication are discussed also.
