ABSTRACT
Tuberculous meningitis (TBM) is a severe form of tuberculosis. We report the development of fatal TBM in a 2-year-old previously healthy child, suggesting that TBM must be evaluated in children of all ages with non-specific symptoms of central nervous involvement because a diagnostic delay induces a negative prognosis.
