초록
Toxoplasma encephalitis is an opportunistic infection that may occur in immunocompromised or advanced HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) patients and lead to serious complications in the CNS. We report a 44-year-old man with toxoplasma encephalitis combined with HIV infection. He was admitted with headache and neck stiffness. Brain computed tomography showed normal findings. Tuberculous meningitis was suspected from CSF and serum tests. However, his symptoms continued to progress, and toxoplasma encephalitis was diagnosed based on brain magnetic resonance imaging and serum tests
