Annotation
coord IM with specific brain disease (IM) or specific site (IM) if pertinent; congenital: coord IM with
TOXOPLASMOSIS, CONGENITAL
(IM)
Scope Note
Infections of the
BRAIN
caused by the protozoan
TOXOPLASMA
gondii that primarily arise in individuals with
IMMUNOLOGIC DEFICIENCY SYNDROMES
(see also
AIDS-RELATED OPPORTUNISTIC INFECTIONS
). The infection may involve the brain diffusely or form discrete abscesses. Clinical manifestations include
SEIZURES
, altered mentation, headache, focal neurologic deficits, and
INTRACRANIAL HYPERTENSION
