  • Title: Multiple Cranial Tuberculomas Without Meningitis in Two Infants With Miliary Tuberculosis.
    Author: St Cyr G, Starke JR.
    Journal: Pediatr Infect Dis J; 2019 Dec; 38(12):e337-e339. PubMed ID: 31738344.
    Abstract:
    Magnetic resonance imaging may detect central nervous system involvement even when cerebrospinal fluid is normal and tests to detect Mycobacterium tuberculosis are negative. We describe 2 cases of miliary tuberculosis in young children with clinically unexpected central nervous system involvement. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain should be considered part of the initial diagnostic workup for miliary tuberculosis in very young children.
