Changing Disease Patterns in Focal Brain Lesion-Causing Disorders in AIDS

Abstract

Because of the significant decrease of TE and the increase of PCNSL empiric anti-Toxoplasma therapy no longer seems appropriate as a first-line approach to all HIV-positive patients with FBL. Especially in the case of a finding of FBL by contrast enhancement, new diagnostic strategies should be employed to identify the underlying disorder rapidly and accurately.
