RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 Isolated cerebral aspergilloma in a young immunocompetent patient JF Practical Neurology JO Pract Neurol FD BMJ Publishing Group Ltd SP 166 OP 168 DO 10.1136/jnnp.2009.176594 VO 9 IS 3 A1 S K Narayan A1 K Kumar A1 R P Swaminathan A1 V R Roopeshkumar A1 B Bhavna YR 2009 UL http://pn.bmj.com/content/9/3/166.abstract AB Aspergillosis of the central nervous system is uncommon. It is encountered mainly in the immunocompromised. We describe an unusual case of cerebral aspergillosis in a young but immunocompetent patient. Despite delayed diagnosis, specific anti-fungal therapy lead to a good recovery. Unfortunately, non-adherence with the costly drugs for an adequate period of time was followed by a fatal relapse.
