Abstract
CASE REPORT: An 18 year old female suffering from tuberculous meningitis with bilateral amaurosis, ophthalmoplegia, other cranial nerve palsies and loss of consciousness, is presented. DISCUSSION: Tuberculous meningitis is a rare cause of basal arachnoiditis with a bad prognosis. Possible causes of visual acuity loss and ophthalmoplegia are discussed and a favourable outcome without sequelae is noteworthy in our case.Entities:
