Here, we report a case of 24-year-old female who experienced fever, weight\nloss, and headache by the termination of her pregnancy after 24 weeks. She\nwas admitted due to multiple generalized tonic clonic (GTC) seizures and loss\nof consciousness. Her lab data and histological findings were insignificant as\nwell as negative mycobacterium culture. Her brain MRI detected multiple enhanced\nbrain lesions on T2 weighted images. Overall, she went under empiric\nanti-TB treatment for a year and had a complete recovery. To our knowledge,\nthis is the first reported case of brain tuberculoma with negative histological\nfindings and brain tissue culture who responded to an empiric anti-TB regimen.
