[Cerebral aspergillosis and liver transplantation: about one case].

Cerebral invasive aspergillosis is a rare but serious infection. Mortality is still high despite appropriate treatment. We report the case of a patient with liver transplantation in the context of alcoholic cirrhosis and transplanted back seven years later consequently to an ischemic cholangitis. Following an acquired active viral infection by HCV and treated by antiviral combination therapy the patient presented six months after this second operation a cerebral aspergillosis of tumour-like presentation. It rapidly evolved to an unfavourable outcome with intracranial hypertension state. If the therapeutic management is well established, the diagnosis is difficult. This observation allows us to discuss the various diagnostic criteria of cerebral aspergillosis.
