abstract: Tuberculoma of the brain is a rare form of central nervous system (CNS) tuberculosis with non-specific clinical manifestation. Due to its similarity with many other infectious and non-infectious lesions, diagnosis is difficult. The study presents the case of a patient who developed CNS tuberculoma during the course of tuberculous meningitis.
