ABSTRACT |
Brain tumors are manifest in a limited variety of ways, presenting with symptoms of increased intracranial pressure and of localized destruction or compression of nervous tissue. Two cases of brain tumor were reported, in which clinical manifestations resembled those of the meningitis, that is, clinical signs and symptoms, as well as cerebrospinal fluid pleocytosis, were consistent with the diagnosis of meningitis. |
