    Author: Pollack IF, Pang D, Schuit KE.
    Journal: J Neurosurg; 1987 Jul; 67(1):132-6. PubMed ID: 3598663.
    Abstract:
    A patient is described with osteomyelitis of the cranium and epidural abscess due to Aspergillus fumigatus as the presenting manifestations of chronic granulomatous disease. The diagnosis was suggested by the unusual nature of the organism isolated and confirmed by appropriate laboratory studies. The details of diagnostic assessment and therapeutic management are discussed, and the central nervous system manifestations of chronic granulomatous disease are reviewed.
