Granulomatous amoebic encephalitis : ウィキペディア英語版 | Granulomatous amoebic encephalitis
Granulomatous amoebic encephalitis ("GAE") is a central nervous system disease caused by certain species, especially species of ''Acanthamoeba'' and ''Balamuthia mandrillaris''. The term is most commonly used with ''Acanthamoeba''. In more modern references, the term "Balamuthia amoebic encephalitis" (BAE) is commonly used when ''Balamuthia mandrillaris'' is the cause. ==Pathology== GAE may present in numerous ways. There is no solid definition, as only a handful of patients have presented thus far with GAE. GAE can present with: focal paralysis, seizures, brainstem symptoms, and other neurological problems, some of which may mimic glioma (especially brainstem glioma), or other brain diseases, which may hamper timely diagnosis. These symptoms are caused by inflammatory necrosis of brain tissue brought on by amoebic infiltrates.
