INFECTIOUS AND INFLAMMATORY DISORDERS Richard J. Hicks, MD and John R. Hesselink, MD, FACR ABSCESS Bacterial Brain abscesses may be related to infections of the paranasal sinuses, mastoids, middle ears as well as hematogenous seeding, but in 20% of cases a source is not discovered. Very rarely an abscess is secondary to meningitis. In children, more than 60% of cerebral abscesses are associated with congenital heart disease and right to left shunts. Presenting symptoms of a cerebral abscess include headache, drowsiness, confusion, seizures and focal neurologic deficits. Fever and leukocytosis are common during the invasive phase of a cerebral abscess but may resolve as the abscess becomes encapsulated. Organisms most frequently cultured from brain abscesses in otherwise immunocompetent individuals are staphylococcus and streptococcus. When the brain is inoculated with a pathogen, a local cerebritis develops. Pathologically, an area of cerebritis consists of vascular congestion, petechial hemorrhage and brain edema. The infection goes through a stage of cerebral softening, followed by liquefaction and central cavitation. With time, the central necrotic areas become confluent and are encapsulated after one to two weeks. Edema, a prominent feature of cerebral abscess, may actually subside after the capsule forms. In the cerebritis stage, MR reveals high signal intensity on T2-weighted images, both centrally from inflammation and peripherally from edema. Areas of low signal are variably imaged on T1-weighted scans. As the progression to abscess ensues there is further prolongation of T1 and T2 centrally. The capsule becomes highlighted as a relatively isointense structure containing and surrounded by low signal on T1- weighted images, and high signal on T2-weighted images. Mottled areas of enhancement are seen with gadolinium-enhanced MR during the cerebritis stage, with an enhancing rim developing as the abscess matures. The enhancing rim may appear late in the cerebritis stage, prior to actual central necrosis. In some instances, the central area of necrosis has also enhanced on delayed scans, but not as commonly as is seen in necrotic tumors.

PatientPlus articles are written for doctors and so the language can be technical. However, some people find that they add depth to the articles found in the other sections of this website which are written for non-medical people. Intracranial Abscesses Intracranial abscesses are uncommon, serious, life-threatening infections. They include brain abscess and subdural or extradural empyema. A high number of brain abscesses are polymicrobial Epidemiology Brain abscesses are rare in developed countries but are a significant problem in the developing world, they occur more frequently in males and in those younger than 40 years old. A decrease in meningitis due to the Haemophilus influenzae vaccine has reduced the prevalence in young children. The prevalence of brain abscess is higher in patients with HIV infection Causative organisms include: Bacteria: common bacterial causes include Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococci, Bacteroides species and Listeria Fungi: Aspergillus, Candida, Cryptococcus, Coccidioides, Histoplasma, Blastomyces Protozoa: e.g.

Search SUMMARY: Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT) is a multisystem vascular dysplasia characterized by the presence of multiple arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) that lack intervening capillaries and result in direct connections between arteries and veins. Small AVMs, or telangiectases, close to the surface of skin and mucous membranes often rupture and bleed after slight trauma. The most common clinical manifestations are spontaneous and recurrent epistaxis and multiple telangiectases, which commonly appear on the lips, face, tongue or hands in early adulthood. About minority of individuals with HHT have symptomatic GI bleeding, which most commonly begins after age 50 years. Large AVMs often cause symptoms when they occur in the brain, lung or the gastrointestinal tract; complications from bleeding or shunting may be sudden and catastrophic. Synonyms: Osler-Weber-Rendu (OWR) disease. Includes: HHT1 and HHT2

Related Content Related Content Brain abscess (Disease) Amebic brain abscess Definition A brain abscess is a mass of immune cells, pus, and other material that can occur when the brain is infected by bacteria or fungus. Alternative Names Abscess - brain; Cerebral abscess; CNS abscess Causes And Risk Brain abscesses commonly occur when bacteria or fungi infect part of the brain. Inflammation develops in response. Infected brain cells, white blood cells, and live and dead microorganisms collect in a limited area of the brain. This area becomes enclosed by a membrane that forms around it and creates a mass. While this immune response can protect the brain by isolating the infection, it can also do more harm than good. The brain swells in response to the inflammation, and the mass may put pressure on delicate brain tissue. Infected material can block the blood vessels of the brain, further damaging tissues by causing cell death and swelling of additional cells. Multiple abcesses are uncommon except in immunocompromised patients. Infectious agents gain access to the brain in several ways. The most common way is through infected blood. Ear and sinus infections may also spread directly to the brain because of their close proximity.
