摘要：

A Nigerian man had acute onset of headache and vertigo due to a cerebellar mass. A brain biopsy of the mass revealed toxoplasmosis despite repeated negative HIV-1 serology. The presence of an opportunistic infection and his country of origin raised the suspicion for HIV-2; this was confirmed by positive HIV-2 serology. Despite his preliminary pathological diagnosis, results of physiological magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) (perfusion MRI and proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy) were not typical for toxoplasmosis. The lesion showed a biochemical and perfusion pattern that was intermediate for infectious and neoplastic processes. Further neuropathology confirmed a secondary diagnosis of lymphomatoid granulomatosis.
