Figures & Tables

Pictured above is the patient’s admission MRI, which also showed subtle changes indicative of TB Meningitis.

Pictured above is one of the scans the patient had during February showing enlarged ventricles indicative of hydrocephalus from the blocked shunt.

Pictured above is a scan of the patient’s brain. The white area circled in red shows the placement of the shunt following the first surgery.

Pictured above is the result of the patient’s urgent CT head taken the morning that the patient passed away. It shows a large bilateral basal ganglia and thalamic infarct.
