RÉSUMÉ
Les tuberculomes intracrâniens se définissent comme des processus occupants intracrâniens en relation avec la présence du bacille tuberculeux au niveau du parenchyme cérébral. Les auteurs rapportent le cas d’une lésion tuberculeuse cérébrale chez un homme de 33 ans, refugié de la guerre asymétrique au Sahel. Le diagnostic a été basé sur l’examen scanographique. Le traitement a consisté en une poly chimiothérapie antituberculeuse pendant 24 mois. Une sanction chirurgicale n’a pas été nécessaire. L’évolution a été favorable.
ABSTRACT
Intracranial tuberculomas are defined as occupying intracranial processes related to the presence of the tubercle bacillus in the brain parenchyma. The authors report the case of a tuberculous brain lesion in a 33-year-old man, a Sahel asymmetric war refugee. The diagnosis was based on CT. The treatment which was administered was an anti-tuberculosis chemotherapy over 24 months. Surgical sanction was not necessary. The outcome was favorable.
