Histological surprise: callosal tuberculoma presenting as malignant glioma.

F Fath-Ordoubadi1, R J Lane, P G Richards.   

Abstract

A tumour which on CT is clearly intrinsic, irregular, exhibits patchy enhancement with contrast, and invades periventricular tissues, especially the corpus callosum, is very likely to be a glioma and may not be biopsied. A case is presented with these radiological features in which the tumour proved to be a tuberculoma, with complete clinical and radiological resolution after antituberculous chemotherapy.
