    Abstract:
    Clinical characteristics of 6 patients with tuberculous meningoencephalitis is presented. The increased morbidity of tuberculosis in recent years makes it necessary to consider this etiology in the diagnosis of CNS infections especially with severe atypic and long lasting course. In the case when tuberculous etiology is suspected the anti tuberculous treatment should be applied. Using new and modern diagnostic methods of CSF will allow to diagnose tuberculous meningoencephalitis earlier and will improve prognosis in this disease.
