Múltiplas infecções supurativas focais dentro da cavidade craniana, incluindo os espaços epidural e subdural, ou no cérebro, tronco cerebral ou cerebelo. Os abscessos são tipicamente circundados por uma cápsula vascularizada. Cerebrite descreve abscessos cerebrais não encapsulados. O agente infeccioso pode ser bacteriano, fúngico ou parasitário. Os sinais e sintomas são variáveis, mas geralmente se apresentam como uma lesão de massa em expansão, por um período variável de tempo, com cefaleia, febre e um déficit neurológico focal. Podem ocorrer convulsões. O diagnóstico é feito por neuroimagem e testes microbiológicos como coloração de Gram e cultura de material do abscesso. | |||

Multiple focal suppurative infections within the cranial cavity, including the epidural and subdural spaces, or in the brain, brainstem or cerebellum. The abscesses are typically surrounded by a vascularised capsule. Cerebritis describes nonencapsulated brain abscesses. The infective agent may be bacterial, fungal, or parasitic. The signs and symptoms are variable but typically present as an expanding mass lesion, over a variable period of time, with headache, fever, and a focal neurologic deficit. Seizures may occur. Diagnosis is made by neuroimaging and microbiological testings as Gram stain and culture of abscess material. | |||
