Primary CNS vasculitis presenting as thalamic mass: A case report
Vishwanath Tripathi, Sunil Singh, Anchal Awasthi
Abstract
Central nervous system vasculitis is an uncommon condition that poses considerable diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. Clinical presentation of primary angitis of the central nervous system is highly variable and there is no set clinical presentation. Advances in neuroimaging & molecular testing has increased the chances of diagnosis. Biopsy of CNS tissues showing vasculitis is the only definitive test. Recent studies suggest that on early diagnosis and prompt initiation of treatment, favourable clinical outcomes may be achieved.
