ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: Cerebral tuberculoma constitutes an important neurotuberculosis clinical form with high morbimortality and important diagnoses difficulty. CASE REPORT: Only giant cerebral tuberculoma case in 3 years-old man who present dizziness and surgically treated by diagnostic suspicion of cerebral tumor. CONCLUSION: Cerebral tuberculomas can often be confused with cerebral tumors when they are not included in differential diagnosis.

ABSTRACT

Introducción. El tuberculoma cerebral constituye una forma clínica importante de neurotuberculosis con una elevada morbimortalidad y una notable dificultad diagnóstica. Caso clínico. Único caso de tuberculoma cerebral gigante en un niño de 3 años, que comenzó con crisis epiléptica y se trató quirúrgicamente por sospecha diagnóstica de tumor cerebral. Conclusión. Los tuberculomas cerebrales pueden confundirse muchas veces con tumores cerebrales cuando no se incluyen enel diagnóstico diferencial

ABSTRACT

A 36-year-old woman developed a photolocalized erythematous papulovesicular eruption while taking piroxicam. Histologic study revealed a superficial and deep spongiotic dermatitis. Phototesting with ultraviolet B (UVB) and ultraviolet A (UVA) was abnormal at the time the patient was seen and after oral challenge with the drug for 5 days. A modified lymphocyte transformation test was positive. The photosensitizing potential of the drug was evaluated in vivo and in vitro. In vivo studies consisted of phototesting twelve medical students before and after intake of piroxicam during 5 consecutive days. No lowering of the minimal erythema dose (MED) values or abnormal reactions to UV and visible light were observed in these students. In vitro studies by the Candida plate method and by photohemolysis showed negative results. Our studies suggest a systemic photoallergy mechanism requiring wavelengths in the UVA range for the reaction. This drug should be avoided in patients receiving photochemotherapy.
