Study of Central Nervous System Tuberculosis.
Conclusion: Diagnosis of CNS TB should be based on clinical features and 3 or more supportive criteria rather than CSF positivity on staining or culture. Rapid and early diagnosis by positive CSF PCR and CT/MRI findings should replace CSF AFB staining and culture in further for the diagnosis of CNS TB.
