Balamuthia mandrillaris brain infection: a rare cause of a ring-enhancing central nervous system lesion. Illustrative case

BACKGROUND: An 80-year-old man presented with subacute mental status change, dizziness, and left-sided vision loss. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a ring-enhancing right parietooccipital lesion. OBSERVATIONS: Biopsy and laboratory testing demonstrated an amoebic Balamuthia mandrillaris infe...
