Title: Stereotactic Aspiration in Management of Rare Case of Tuberculous Cerebellar Abscess. Author: Belfquih H, Akhaddar A. Journal: World Neurosurg; 2019 Sep; 129():188-189. PubMed ID: 31176834.

Most of these cases occur in immunocompromised patients. We report an immunocompetent individual with tuberculous abscess of the cerebellum and discuss the role of stereotactic aspiration in the management of these rare lesions.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
