Study of cerebrospinal fluid adenosine deaminase activity for differential diagnosis of tuberculous and non-tuberculous meningitis
Background: Diagnosing a case of tuberculous meningitis (TBM) has always been challenging. Numerous previous studies have demonstrated that cerebrospinal fluid-Adenosine deaminase (CSF-ADA) estimation is useful in the diagnosis of TBM and can differentiate TBM from other types of meningitis.
