Abstract: Cerebral tuberculous miliary remains a rare extra-pulmonary clinical entity and potentially fatal form of tuberculosis. We present here a 69-year-old immunocompetent patient with tuberculous miliary with cerebral and pulmonary involvement, complicated by hydrocephalus. The aim was to clear our understanding of the clinical and radiological polymorphism of tuberculosis which can delay diagnosis and consequently delay the start of treatment.

Keywords: Tuberculous Miliary, Brain Miliary, BK, Tuberculosis.
