摘要：

We report a case of multiple cerebral and spinal abscesses due to Nocardia asteroides in a non-immunocompromised patient. The initial central nervous system manifestation was a sterile meningitis, with secondary development of multiple cerebral and spinal abscesses. Since the location of the abscesses did not allow neurosurgical exploration and the cultures remained negative, the diagnosis was finally established by raised antibody titres to Nocardia asteroides. After specific antibiotic therapy, resolution of the spinal and cerebral abscesses was documented on the basis of serial magnetic resonance tomography and computed tomography controls.
