A Rare Case of a Solitary Central Nervous System Tuberculoma Mimicking an Intracranial Tumor.

Tuberculosis (TB) can sometimes involve the central nervous system (CNS), especially among immunocompromised patients, but it is an infrequent manifestation. Among immunocompetent individuals, CNS TB has only scarcely been described in the literature; when it is manifested as a solitary lesion (tuberculoma), it can mimic other CNS tumors, appearing with clinical manifestations of increased intracranial pressure, such as headaches and vomiting. In this manuscript, we describe a case of a CNS tuberculoma, which presented as a cerebellum tumor with signs of increased intracranial pressure in an immunocompetent pregnant woman.
