RESUMEN
Focal area of necrosis, with a surrounding membrane within the brain parenchyma, usually resulting from an infectious process or rarely from a traumatic process known as brain abscess. We report a case of young female, who presented with multiple abscess in left frontal and right occipital region of brain, she was otherwise immunocompetent, lacking any known risk factor for opportunistic infection. And this fungal abscess manifest with unusual presentation of bilateral lower limb weakness along with seizures and fever. This infection leads to acute kidney injury (AKI), necessitating kidney replacement therapy (RRT) in term of intermittent hemodialysis (IHD). After drainage of abscess and antifungal therapy, she responded well, her acute kidney injury resolved and she showed clinical and radiological improvement.
RESUMEN
Moya Moya Disease (MDD) is a rare cerebrovascular pathology. It is non atherosclerotic cerebrovascular disease characterized by bilateral internal carotid stenosis or occlusion, and abnormal vascular network at the base of the brain. Here we report a case of young female who presented in emergency with complaints of jerky movements of limbs for six months and history of recently developed unusual high blood pressure which was followed by uremic symptoms. Her workup revealed severe renal dysfunction required kidney replacement therapy (KRT) i.e., hemodialysis. During hospital stay her mental status deteriorated with a drop in GCS. Brain imaging performed and she found to have MMD. Her clinical course continued to deteriorate despite of extensive work up and aggressive management, she died eventually.
