Neuro-Behcet disease is one of the clinical forms of Behcet disease. We report a case of neuro-Behcet disease mimicked a brain tumor. This case was initially considered as a brain tumor from mass lesion with edema at left basal ganglia on radiologic images. The lesion, however, was not neoplasia by pathologic diagnosis. By using steroid therapy, the size had been markedly shrunken on the follow...

Lesion-behaviour mapping aims at predicting individual behavioural deficits, given a certain pattern of brain lesions. It also brings fundamental insights on organization, as lesions can be understood interventions normal function. We focus here the case stroke. The most standard approach to lesion-behaviour is mass-univariate analysis, but it inaccurate due correlations between different regio...

introduction: multiple sclerosis (ms) is a demyelinating disease of the central nervous system (cns), affecting mostly young people at a mean age of 30 years. magnetic resonance imaging (mri) is one of the most specific and sensitive methods in diagnosing and detecting the evolution of multiple sclerosis disease. but it does not have the ability to differentiate between distinct histopathologic...

Among the diverse presentations of neurobrucellosis, solitary intracranial mass lesions are extremely rare. To the best of our knowledge, we describe here the second case of neurobrucellosis mimicking a cerebral tumor caused by Brucella melitensis. The mass lesion was clinically and radiologically indistinguishable from a brain tumor. The diagnosis was established by isolating Brucella melitens...

A 76-year-old female present to the emergency department with dysarthria, dizziness, dyspnea. The patient had hypertension and atrial fibrillation. Brain MRI revealed right cerebellar infarction. Transthoracic echocardiography showed a large round mass in the left atrium. Transesophageal echocardiography showed large complex echogenic round mass lesion attached on left atrial side of interatria...

central nervous system involvement arising from schistosomiasis is uncommon. it may be produced most fre­quently by schistosoma japonicum infection, but reports of s. mansoni presenting as an intracerebral mass lesion are particularly rare. the authors describe the case of a 35-year-old woman with a 3-month history of partial epilep­tic seizures and head­aches. she immigrated to egypt 4 years a...
