Abstract
A case of clinically unsuspected mesencephalic tuberculoma that was diagnosed at operation is presented. After intraoperative diagnosis, the surgical procedure was interrupted and specific treatment with tuberculostatic agents was started. The symptoms remitted totally in a few months. This conservative management is preferable to surgical removal when diagnosis of brain-stem tuberculoma has been established.Entities:
