感染引起的硬脑膜炎

定义

导致硬脑膜局部或弥漫性增厚的硬脑膜炎症，可由慢性感染（如结核病）引起。颅骨和/或硬脊膜可能受累。神经学特征包括头痛、视觉障碍、颅神经麻痹、共济失调和脊髓受累、四肢无力、感觉障碍和括约肌功能障碍。神经影像学和脊髓液分析和硬脑膜活检有助于诊断。

Inflammation of the pachymeninges resulting in localised or diffuse thickening of the dura mater caused by chronic infection such as tuberculosis. The cranial and/or the spinal dura may be affected. Neurological features include headache, visual disturbance, cranial nerve palsies, ataxia and, with spinal involvement, limb weakness, sensory impairment and sphincter disturbances. Diagnosis may be aided by neuroimaging, spinal fluid analysis and dural biopsy.
