Brain abscesses may develop when pyogenic organisms are introduced into the neuroparenchyma. |
Systemic lumphomas secondarily involveing the neuroparenchyma may also preferentially grow in this fashion. |
Bacteria, with possibly Listeria monocytogenes as the sole exception, do not invade the neuroparenchyma as a primary event. |
In healthy patients, the acute infection is asymptomatic and becomes latent within the neuroparenchyma. |
The actual causes of the oxygen deprivation to the neuroparenchyma need not concern us too closely here but they are the inevitable background of any analysis. |
