Analysis of intracranial lesions in patients with HIV-associated cryptococcal meningitis
Intracranial lesions in HIV-associated cryptococcal meningitis patients are mostly due to Cryptococcus and Mycobacterium infections. They often appear as lacunar infarcts, predominantly in the basal ganglia, and can worsen with treatment initiation, possibly due to higher baseline cytokine levels in cerebrospinal fluid.
