Cranial manifestations of aspergillosis
Abstract
Five patients with differing forms and severity of cranial aspergillosis illustrate the range of neuroradiologic manifestations as evaluated with angiography, computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. Together with the physical findings, these subjects illustrate the dire clinical situation requiring immediate recognition in order to attempt to control this devastating, treatment resistant pathologic fungal infection.
