RESUMO
Presentamos el caso de un niño con un tuberculoma cerebral, el primer caso diagnosticado en nuestro hospital. Un diagnóstico, infrecuente en nuestro medio, que debemos tener en mente. La ausencia de una clínica e imágenes específicas hacen difícil establecer el diagnóstico, especialmente en ausencia de lesiones extracraneales y de datos histológicos (AU)
