A six-year-old child with intracranial hypertension is described. Cranial computed tomography showed an expansive mass surrounded by a contrast enhancement ring in the right cerebellar hemisphere. Chest roentgenograms showed signs of pulmonary tuberculosis. Intracranial lesion was diagnosed as a tuberculoma and treated with tuberculostatic agents. Serial computed tomography scans showed a reduction of size of tuberculoma and appearance of a residual calcified image.

D011559 Pseudotumor Cerebri A condition marked by raised intracranial pressure and characterized clinically by HEADACHES; NAUSEA; PAPILLEDEMA, peripheral constriction of the visual fields, transient visual obscurations, and pulsatile TINNITUS. OBESITY is frequently associated with this condition, which primarily affects women between 20 and 44 years of age. Chronic PAPILLEDEMA may lead to optic nerve injury (see OPTIC NERVE DISEASES) and visual loss (see BLINDNESS).
