Özet

Although brain abscess had a high mortality rate, improvements in radiologic imaging facilities, bacteriological techniques and antibiotics have resulted in a mortality of about 5%(16.11,31). Our aim was to emphasize the recently observed increase in the incidence of ventriculomegaly associated with brain abscess among the patients operated on in our hospital during five years. The causes and management of this well-known complication of brain abscesses was also discussed.
