PG  - 126-33
AB  - Paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) is an infectious disease, endemic to subtropical 
      areas of Central and South America, caused by the dimorphic fungus 
      Paracoccidioides brasiliensis. It is a chronic disease, mostly affecting adult 
      males, with a mean patient age of 44 years. Central nervous system involvement 
      (CNS PCM) has been found in 13% of the patients with systemic disease. We 
      reviewed the clinical presentation, diagnosis techniques and treatments for CNS 
      PCM.
