tuberculoma/phosphatase

A treatment protocol for long-term anticonvulsant therapy (ACT) in children with tuberculous meningitis (TBM) has been followed depending upon clinical characteristics and EEG/CT scan findings suggestive of the underlying cause of convulsions. Sixty-three children which included all patients with

The pathological pattern of 86 brain 'tumours' in childhood during the years 1981-85 (out of a total of 586 for all ages), showed a higher proportion of neoplasms and a much lower of tuberculomas compared to the preceding three decades. A large number of histologically unusual cases was revealed.

Differentiation of tuberculous granuloma (TG) from non-tuberculous granuloma (NG) is histopathologically difficult. We evaluated the usefulness of selected immunohistochemical markers to differentiate tuberculous granuloma (TG) and non-tuberculous granuloma (NG). We selected six biomarkers (FoxP3,

We report a 42 years old HIV negative male admitted for fever of unknown origin. Initial laboratory evaluation showed elevated hepatic transaminases and alkaline phosphatase and an hipodense hepatic imagen was visualized in the CT scan. Hepatic biopsy demonstrated tuberculous granulomas and alcohol

The comparative ultrastructure of host-parasite interactions is described for the first time in patients with visceral (VL) and cutaneous (CL) leishmaniasis. In patients with VL, the parasite invades the bone marrow (BM) macrophages (Mcs) and neutrophils, while in patients with CL, the parasite
