Aspergillosis of the nervous system. Report of two cases.

J V Diengdoh, R O Barnard, D G Thomas.   

Abstract

Two cases of Aspergillus infection of the nervous system are reported. In the first case it occurred in a healthy individual and presented as a space occupying lesion mimicking a tuberculous granuloma. In the second case it was an opportunistic infection in a patient with predisposing conditions and manifested as chronic meningitis with fatal arteritis.
