Paracoccidioidal granulomatosis of the brain.

A patient with South American blastomycosis (paracoccidioidomycosis) was studied using computed tomography (CT), which showed six granulomas in the brain. The patient was treated with amphotericin B and observed by repeated CT scans. Two of the lesions disappeared completely after the first cycle of treatment, and residual images, probably representing granulomas in the cicatricial stage, remained after completion of the treatment.
