Abstract
One case of bacterial brain abscess and one case of multiple tuberculomas with tuberculous meningitis were treated non-surgically for an extended time with the aid of serial CT. Complete clinical and radiologic resolution was demonstrated in both cases. The features and the sequence of events in these cases suggest that conservative management of focal intracerebral infection may often obviate the need for surgical intervention.
