Prevention Brain abscess Definition: A brain abscess is a lesion caused by inflammation and infected material (pus) within the brain tissue. Alternative Names: Abscess - brain; Cerebral abscess; CNS abscess Causes, incidence, and risk factors: p A brain abscess is usually caused when bacteria such as staphylococci and streptococci infect part of the brain. In response to the infection, there is inflammation and death of some of the tissues in the brain. Fluid, destroyed tissue cells, white blood cells, and live and dead microorganisms collect and form a mass. This mass usually becomes enclosed by a membrane that forms around it. The brain swells in response to the inflammation, and the mass may put pressure on the the brain. Infected material can block the blood vessels of the brain, further damaging brain tissues. The pressure within the brain rises, causing more damage and problems. A brain abscess may result from other infections, such as an

They describe the role of magnetic resonance imaging in such diagnosis as unclear, citing a 1988 comparative study of two cases as proof. We use magnetic resonance imaging as the preferred imaging technique in patients with suspected cerebral infections. It has improved resolution with multiplanar capability, and it is far more sensitive at detecting subtle white matter abnormalities as may be found in patients with herpes simplex encephalitis. We accept that computed tomography may be more widely available in the United Kingdom

The patient was admitted with fever, malaise and right shoulder pain. Soft tissue abscess was seen on ultrasound examination. It was presumed due to gram(+) microorganisms, so 4 g day (IV) ampicillin/sulbactam was started empirically once the abscess was drained. Nocardia asteroides was found in the pus specimen. On the second day in hospital, severe headache, ataxia and signs of meningeal irritation appeared. The cranial CT showed two intracranial abscesses in the frontal lobe and cerebellum. We assumed Nocardia asteroides was the infective agent for the cerebral abscesses, so antibiotic therapy was switched to trimethoprim-sulphamethox-asole (3x160/800 mg/d). Nausea and vomiting occurred on the fifth day of therapy, improving after drainage from the frontal abscess. However, these complaints recurred five days later. CT showed cerebellar abscess had become bigger. The patient's complaints improved after the second surgical drainage.

She was started on prednisone 30 mg daily in July and mycophenolate (Cellcept) was started in August. In November of 2000 she presented to her primary care physician with a right foot drop and right leg weakness. Her symptoms progressed to numbness of the right foot as well as the right arm and neck. She developed right-sided twitching without loss of consciousness and a CT scan of the brain showed multiple ring-enhancing lesions.

Clinics in diagnostic imaging (51). Multiloculated cerebral abscesses due to paradoxical cardiac emboli. Liu JF, Lam HS, Jinkins JR. Department of Diagnostic Radiology, Kwong Wah Hospital, Hong Kong. A 19-year-old woman with congenital cyanotic heart disease (Epstein anomaly and ventricular septal defect) had persistent headaches and intermittent fever for five weeks. Physical examination revealed central cyanosis, finger clubbing and fever. The leucocyte count was elevated. Cerebral MR imaging showed the characteristic features of brain abscesses in the right frontal lobe, including multiloculation with adjacent satellite lesions, ring enhancement, T1-hyperintense and T2-hypointense signal areas within the abscess rim, as well as hypointense internal concentric rings on T2-weighted images. The diagnosis of brain abscesses was confirmed by craniotomy and pus drainage. She made a good recovery with a combination of antibiotics and surgery. Follow-up CT scans showed only changes of encephalomalacia at the healed abscess site. The aetiology, clinical features, and the role of CT and MR imaging in the diagnosis and management of brain abscess are discussed. Sex Transm Infect. 2000 Aug;76(4):299-302.

Brain Diseases Cerebral Abscess Book: The New Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain Book: Localization in Clinical Neurology - This is a very detailed book. It is dry and moderately difficult reading, but is comprehensive in its subject matter. 1st you localize, then think of pathophysiology and DDx. In that sense I can say that this is the best neurological DDx book I have seen. Patten is only better in illustrations. Book: Diagnostic Cerebral Angiography - As a professional neuroradiologist, I recommend this book to all radiologists, neurologists and neurosurgeons who wish to choose just one book in the field of cerebral angiography. In this era of MRA and CTA, this book can give readers not too much, not too little knowledge about normal anatomy and pathological findings. Figures were clearly drawn and clinical DSA images were carefully chosen. Maybe those who wish to become professional neurointerventionists prefer those historical books edited by Dr. Newton, but I suppose even such people would love this book and read it daily.
