MR features of cerebral aspergillosis in an immunocompetent patient: correlation with histology and elemental analysis.

Warinthorn Phuttharak1, John R Hesselink, Christopher Wixom.   

Abstract

We report an unusual case of cerebral aspergillosis in a young immunocompetent patient who also had dissemination to other end organs. The patient presented with a large mass in the left cerebral hemisphere. Elemental analysis of biopsy specimens revealed elevated levels of iron, magnesium, zinc, calcium, chromium, and nickel that correlated with a peripheral rim of hypointensity on T2-weighted images.
