“…Le taux de mortalité lié à la tuberculose est estimé à 8.75% dans notre étude et ce taux est légèrement inférieur à ceux trouvé par Eholie et Al. et Daucourt et al [ 9 , 10 ] qui sont respectivement de 11% et 14%. Les facteurs de risque de mortalité n'ont pas fait l'objet de notre etude mais nous pouvons néanmoins incriminer les localisations multiples de la tuberculose [ 11 ] et l'existence d'une multirésistance[ 12 , 13 ].…”

“…It is more useful to perform blood culture for disseminated cases. To confirm diagnosis, CSF is cultured on Sabouraud agar plates for > 36 h. This allows cultures www.intechopen.com to grow and the method can be utilized for evaluating disease burden by diluting aliquots of CSF and enumerating the number of colony-forming units for the fungal load in the specimen (Eholie, 2000;Ki-Zerbo, 1996;Millogo, 2004;Soumare, 2005c). With a little modification, the method can also be used for assessing efficacy of anticryptococcal regimens (Bicanic, 2009).…”

“…For patients with HIV/AIDS, the meningitis may spread rapidly to many organs. Records from Cote d'Ivoire showed that a number of hospitalized patients on admission presented with nonspecific severe symptoms that were associated with progression of cryptococcal meningitis disease including weight loss (44-62 %), chronic diarrhea (22-44.2 %), fever (50-85 %), chronic coughs (14 %), coma, convulsions and neck stiffness (24.4-85%) (Eholie, 2000). In Mali, 15 of 17 (88.2 %) cases with cryptococcal meningitis had signs of some abnormality while the remaining 2 had isolated fever.…”
