摘要
Actinomycosis located in the central nervous system is an extremely uncommon event, but if correctly diagnosed and properly treated may have a good prognosis. This case report of a cerebral abscess caused by actinomyces suggests that such a rare event should be included in the differential diagnosis of infectious diseases that affect the central nervous system.
