ABSTRACT
Pathology in the contralateral hemicranium following hemispherectomy has been reported only once; a meningioma was found at autopsy, compressing the remaining hemisphere of a patient who had been submitted to a hemispherectomy for a malignant glioma [14] Intracranial brucella abscess have been reported only 10 times in the literature. We are reporting a case of cerebral brucella abscess in the remaining hemisphere following a hemispherectomy for infantile uncontrollable seizures and behaviour problems. The literature is reviewed and a new approach to the medial aspect of the remaining hemisphere is described
