ABSTRACT
We report multiple and diffuse supratentorial and infratentorial brain abscesses in a ten months old girl with D- transposition of great arteries. The child was managed medically with intravenous antibiotics for 4 weeks. Her fever settled, however, weakness of right half of the body persisted despite remarkable improvement. Multiple abscesses [about 40 in number], in a child less than 2 years age, associated neutrophilia with toxic granulations and successful therapy with antibiotics alone makes this an unusual case
