Abstract

A case of pineal area tuberculoma revealed by grand mal seizures and deterioration of vision is presented. A surgical biopsy and chemotherapy produced good results. This unusual site of tuberculoma demonstrates the usefulness of a direct approach to pineal area masses. It also confirms the effectivity of chemotherapy for tuberculoma.
