    颅脑Eumycetoma罕见,我们报告了一例涉及大脑和颅骨的罕见病例,一位中年男性患有头痛,行为异常,和3个月的记忆障碍。影像学显示额叶病变。在临床和放射学上被误认为是肿瘤。颅脑腺瘤通常表现为头皮上有鼻窦的肿块。我们的病例表现为脑肿瘤,没有软组织肿块或排出鼻窦。记住这种演示模式是至关重要的,只有活检才有助于诊断.
    Eumycetomas of craniocerebral are rare, and we report an extraordinary case of maduramycosis involving brain and skull bone in a middle-aged male who presented with complaints of headache, behavioral abnormalities, and memory disturbances for 3 months. Imaging showed a frontal lesion. It was mistaken for a tumor clinically and radiologically. Craniocerebral eumycetoma usually presents as a mass on the scalp with sinuses. Our case presented as a brain tumor without a soft tissue mass or discharging sinuses. It is essential to keep in mind this mode of presentation, and only a biopsy will aid in diagnosis.

    Mycetoma or Maduramycosis is a localized chronic suppurative infection characterized by exuberant granulation tissue, discharging sinuses, and bone involvement later in the course of the disease. Early clinical diagnosis before the appearance of sinuses and grains (aggregates of organism surrounded by granulation tissue, which are discharged from the draining sinuses) is difficult. Delay in diagnosis may lead to amputation of the affected part. Definitive diagnosis is through biopsy and microbiological examination. However, at times diagnosis may still be difficult. The recently described \"dot in circle\" sign on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is easy to recognize and highly specific. We present a case of mycetoma foot with characteristic MRI features.
