Abstract
Open AccessMultiple Candida glabrata (C. glabrata) brain abscesses are an exceptionally rare central-nervous-system infection. Clinical data on diagnosing and managing multiple Candida glabrata brain abscesses are still scarce. Here we reported a 66-year-old patient with multiple C. glabrata brain abscesses confirmed by cerebrospinal-fluid puncture. The patient showed marked improvement following intracranial pressure-lowering therapy and antifungal therapy. By detailing the relevant MRI findings and therapeutic approach, this article aimed to provide a reference for the future clinical diagnosis and management of similar cases.
