Abstract

Tubercular abscess of the brain is a rare form of central nervous system tuberculosis. These lesions usually occur in the supratentorial compartment. They are associated with a state of immune deficiency. We report two immunocompetent individuals with tubercular abscess of the cerebellum and discuss the management of these lesions.
