She had miliary tuberculosis of the lung and treated with isoniazid 0.4g, ethambutol 0.75g, and rifampicin 0.45g daily.
About three months later. she was discharged recoveringin almost all good condition, but she readmitted within one month because of weakness of both legs and gait disturbance.
Computed tomography of the brain revealed multiple small nodular lesions with ringenhancement in cerebral cortex, basal ganglia and cerebellum.
Diagnosis was made as multiple tuberculoma of the brain.
Although the treatment is continued, neurological symptoms are slowly progressing.
We consider her prognosis is poor.
