Abstract

CT is the most common brain infection seen in HIV-infected patients. Its frequency is estimated at 15-30%. The clinico-biological and radiological picture is not specific and the realization of a cerebral biopsy which allows to affirm the diagnosis is justified only in the absence of favorable response in the first fifteen days of the treatment. CT should be diagnosed on the basis of multiple intracranial processes, a compatible brain imaging presentation and improvement with specific treatment.
