Spontaneous Propionibacterium Acnes abscess with intraventricular rupture in an immunocompetent adult without prior neurosurgical intervention

Previously viewed as a culture contaminant, Propionibacterium Acnes can cause infection following neurosurgical intervention. Its role in brain abscess in the immunocompetent, surgically naïve population has been infrequently reported. Herein, we describe an immunocompetent 55‐year‐old man with no r...

description Previously viewed as a culture contaminant, Propionibacterium Acnes can cause infection following neurosurgical intervention. Its role in brain abscess in the immunocompetent, surgically naïve population has been infrequently reported. Herein, we describe an immunocompetent 55‐year‐old man with no risk factors found to have a thalamic abscess with intraventricular rupture.
