Anterior Skull Base Tuberculosis Mimicking an Anterior Skull Base Meningioma: A Case Report. [PDF]
CureusTuberculosis (TB) affecting the central nervous system (CNS) is rare, often mimicking other intracranial pathologies such as meningiomas, especially when located in the anterior skull base. Despite a global reduction in TB incidence, CNS TB continues to present diagnostic challenges due to its nonspecific imaging characteristics.
