Infecção supurativa focal no cerebelo, tipicamente circundada por uma cápsula vascularizada. Cerebrite descreve um abscesso cerebral não encapsulado. O agente infeccioso pode ser bacteriano, fúngico ou parasitário. Os sinais e sintomas são variáveis, mas tipicamente 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 exames de neuroimagem. O diagnóstico microbiológico é feito por coloração de Gram e cultura do material do abscesso. | |||
