Abstract:
Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is caused by a dimorphic fungus Paracoccidioides Brasiliensis and is endemic to subtropical areas of Central and South America. CNS involvement of PCM is extremely variable. NeuroPCM is found in 9.65% to 27.18% of PCM cases .Most neuro PCM patients presents with simultaneous involvement of other organ but isolated or initial CNS involvement may be a feature in 21%. Here we report a case of CNS PCM and this appears to be first reported case of PCM and CNS PCM in India.
摘要:
副角菌病(PCM)是由双态真菌巴西副角菌病引起的,在中美洲和南美洲的亚热带地区特有。PCM的CNS参与是极其可变的。在9.65%至27.18%的PCM病例中发现了神经PCM。大多数神经PCM患者同时受累其他器官,但孤立或最初的中枢神经系统受累可能是21%的特征。在这里,我们报告了一例CNSPCM,这似乎是印度首次报告的PCM和CNSPCM病例。
