| Core Tip |
Infection is a common complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) treated with glucocorticoids and immunosuppressants, but multiple cerebral abscesses caused by a rare pathogen are uncommon. Conventional treatment includes surgery and antibiotics. However, due to concerns about SLE exacerbation after the reduction of glucocorticoid and immunosuppressant, and poor tolerability to surgery for multiple cerebral abscesses in patients with SLE, treatment is often difficult, and selection of antibiotics sensitive to rare pathogens is challenging. We report a patient who benefited from individualized surgical treatment of multiple cerebral abscesses, and a multi-antibiotic regimen, with good outcomes. |
