摘要
Intracranial aspergillus granulomas over a 12-year period were studied retrospectively. Three distinctive types of presentations were seen, namely nine patients had the rhinocerebral form with primary involvement of the air sinuses and secondary involvement of the skull base, cranial nerves and brain, three patients with the apparently purely intracranial form presented like any other space occupying lesion and one patient who had a 'stroke-like' presentation had a parasellar lesion. None of these patients were immunocompromised. The clinical features, and the medical and surgical options are discussed together with outcome.
