[Tuberculous encephalitis--a complication of lung tuberculosis].
On the basis of a number of cases, the symptomatology and the diagnostic work-up of encephalitis tuberculosa are presented. All the patients had neurological findings, which in some cases were masked. Although computed tomography of the head and CSF examination provide sensitive, but nonspecific findings, the diagnosis would not have been established without a detailed knowledge of the clinical picture. A greater incidence of complications than has previously been assumed, is postulated.
