Abstract :
Cerebral tuberculous miliary remains a rare
extra-pulmonary clinical entity and potentially fatal
form of tuberculosis. We present here a 69-year-old
immunocompetent patient with tuberculous miliary
with cerebral and pulmonary involvement, complicated
by hydrocephalus. The aim was to clear our
understanding of the clinical and radiological
polymorphism of tuberculosis which can delay diagnosis
and consequently delay the start of treatment.
Keywords :
Tuberculous Miliary, Brain Miliary, BK, Tuberculosis.
