Brain Abscesses in the Tropics
Current Tropical Medicine Reports, 2023This review aims to elucidate the etiologies of brain abscesses in the tropics. Despite the similarities in causes of brain abscesses across global regions, tropical settings manifest distinguishing characteristics, prominently observed on computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging.In tropical climates, the leading conditions predisposing ...

Surgical Neurology, 1981
A young woman with 12 separate brain abscesses was treated medically after aspiration of one abscess for diagnostic bacteriological examination. She made an excellent recovery with only minimal residual neurological dysfunction. Surgical aspiration for detailed bacteriological studies followed by appropriate antimicrobial therapy is an effective way of

Brain abscesses are rare in infants and their clinical presentation is specific for this age group. Seven cases of brain abscess in infants aged 2-11 months are reported. The underlying cause was meningitis in four, sepsis in two, and unknown in one. Gram-negative organisms were cultured in 6 patients.

During that last 6 years, 100 children have been treated for brain abscess at the National Institute of Mental Health and Neurosciences (NIMHANS), Bangalore. Of these, 69 abscesses were otogenic. The treatment included aspiration of the abscess (84% of cases) and antibiotic therapy. CT scan as a diagnostic tool was available only for a few cases in the

Antibiotic and chemotherapeutic procedures have tremendously reduced the incidence of brain abscesses and this therapy is indicated irrespective of surgical procedures instituted. This form of therapy in its prophylactic efforts has served in more than one experience to chronicize and deter diagnostic concepts.

The otolaryngological contribution to the combined treatment of intracranial suppuration secondary to sinusitis can vary from observation to external approach sinus exploration. Limited surgical intervention using the endoscopic approach, in conjunction with neurosurgical drainage, has recently been adopted at our department as the initial therapeutic ...
