[Diversity in the clinical course of toxoplasma encephalitis in two patients infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)].
The central nervous system (CNS) is the most common site of Toxoplasma gondii infection in HIV-positive patients, mainly due to reactivation of Toxoplasma cysts. The diagnosis is difficult since no sensitive and specific non-invasive diagnostic tests exist. The patient may present with rather unspecific signs and symptoms. We present atypical course of CNS-toxoplasmosis in two HIV-positive persons.
