Neurosurgery, 1985
The results of CT brain scan in diagnosing and monitoring the course of brain abscesses and the recognition of the major role that anaerobic bacteria play in causing this disease have led to a reduction in disease mortality and have allowed a greater percentage of infected patients to recover without major neurosurgical procedures.

Critical Care Nursing Clinics of North America, 2013
Brain abscess is a serious and life-threatening disease among children despite advances in diagnosis and management. Changes in the epidemiology of predisposing conditions for brain abscess are associated with changes in the patient population and causative organisms.

Seminars in Neurology, 2000
The epidemiology of brain abscess has changed with the increasing incidence of this infection in immunocompromised patients, particularly solid organ and bone marrow transplant recipients, and the decreasing incidence of brain abscess related to sinusitis and otitis.

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 1999
Optimal treatment of a brain abscess requires early clinical suspicion, and the diagnosis is usually made by identification of the abscess on contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The immediate first step is to reduce the potentially life-threatening brain mass (abscess and surrounding cerebral edema) and ...

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

Acta Neurochirurgica, 1981
Two cases of tuberculous brain abscesses which were similar to pyogenic abscesses on routine histology are presented. Appropriate staining and culture techniques are essential for diagnosis of these lesions. The possible pathogenesis of tuberculous abscess in the brain is suggested.

Journal of Clinical Neuroscience, 2010
Nocardial infections, although rare, are challenging for clinicians to treat. The associated mortality rate remains high; such infections usually occur in immunocompromised patients who have predisposing factors such as malignancy, diabetes mellitus, malnutrition and uremia.

American Journal of Rhinology, 1999
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
