Deep solitary brain mass in a four-month-old male with disseminated coccidioidomycosis: case report.

Parenchymal brain involvement from disseminated coccidioidomycosis occurs rarely and there are few documented pediatric cases. We report a four-month-old male infant with a cerebellar lesion seen in the brain on computed tomography (CT). Coccidioides immitis (C. immitis) grew on bronchoscopic fluid samples and serum titers to C. immitis were 1:1024. Antifungal treatment was initiated and after 3 months, CT scans demonstrated brain mass resolution and serum titers were decreased.
