Central nervous system tuberculosis in immunocompetent patients: Two case reports with literature review.

Central nervous system tuberculosis (CNS) is a rare but extremely dangerous condition that has been reported in 5%-10% of extrapulmonary tuberculosis cases and accounts for approximately 1% of all tuberculosis cases. We present 2 cases of isolated central system tuberculosis in immunocompetent patients: a 57-year-old female and a 22-year-old young man, both of whom had MRI findings consistent with meningitis and tuberculomas and were complicated by cerebral ischemic infarction in the second case. Despite delaying therapy, both patients who had positive TB tests (PCR and QuantiFERON-TB Gold) nevertheless demonstrated clinical improvement.

Extramedullary hematopoiesis is a rare disorder in which hematopoietic cells proliferate in tissues other than the bone marrow as a result of a range of hematologic illnesses. Our case is unique in that it covers a number of extramedullary hematopoiesis sites in a 15-year-old girl, some of which are uncommon.
