ABSTRACT
Nocardia nova is an uncommon pathogen for human beings. We describe an immunocompetent patient who acquired multiple cerebral abscesses. A surgical drainage yielded a sulpha-trimethoprim susceptible N. nova strain. The patient recovered uneventfully after a prolonged treatment with sulpha-trimethoprim.
