Diffuse pneumocephalus due to Clostridium septicum cerebritis in haemolytic uraemic syndrome: CT demonstration.

Abstract

The computed tomography finding of diffuse pneumocephalus due to infection by gas-forming organisms is very unusual. We report such a case due to secondary infection by Clostridium septicum in a child with diarrhoea-associated haemolytic uraemic syndrome.
