Abstract:

Histological diagnosis: Meningoencephalitis tbc? Iu? gradu haevl. Encephalomalacia recens in regione nuoleorum basalium. Autopsy examination of 76-year-old patient was performed. Neuropathological evaluation in light microscopy was based on brain paraffin sections stained by H-E, Van Gieson's, Cresyl violet, Holzer and Mallory's stain.At the base of the brain slight meningeal infiltrates, consisting of lymphocytes and less numerous plasma cells were seen. Very discrete infiltrates were observed also on the vault of the brain. The lining of ventricle IV was markedly altered, numerous granules covering almost the entire surface were found. In the basal ganglia, slight perivascular lymphocytic infiltrates were seen. Fresh malacic focus without macrophage dissection was noticed, the tissue here was congested, necrotic and in the process of disintegration. On the basis of the available material cannot be decided whether there is a connection between the inflammatory process and the perivascular focus of inflammatory cells, but the weak intensity of the infiltrates suggests that they are rather two coexisting disease processes. The etiology of the inflammation is unclear..
