Brain Abscess Caused by Nocardia farcinica and Diagnosed by Metagenomic Next-Generation Sequencing: A Case Report
BACKGROUND: Brain abscesses caused by Nocardia farcinica are rare and difficult to diagnose. Conventional methods for diagnosing Nocardia species include blood culture, microscopy, and tissue slice, but the performance is not satisfied. We report a case of brain abscess due to N. farcinica diagnosed...
