- W2969944345 abstract "The aim of this study was to better characterise clinical presentation, management and outcome in infants and children with brain abscess.The authors conducted a retrospective, multicentre study in two national reference centres over a 25-year period (1992-2017). During this period, 116 children and 28 infants (age <1 year) with brain abscess were treated.The median age at diagnosis was 101.5 (range: 13-213) months in children and 1 (0-11) month in infants. Significant differences were observed between children and infants. The most common predisposing factor was meningitis in infants (64% of cases vs 3% in children), while it was otolaryngology-related infection in children (31% of cases vs 3.6% in infants). Infants presented more frequently with fever and meningism compared with children. 115 patients were treated with aspiration and 11 with excision. Reoperation was required in 29 children vs 1 infant. The overall mortality rate was 4% (3.4% for children, 7.1% for infants). At 3-month follow-up, the outcome was favourable in 86% of children vs in 68% of infants.There is a clear difference between children and infants with brain abscess in terms of predisposing factors, causative organisms and outcome. Despite surgical drainage and directed antibiotic therapy, 25% of patients with brain abscess require reoperation. Mortality is improved compared with historical series; however, long-term morbidity is significant particularly in the infant population." @default.
