Abstract

A number of pathogens have the propensity to involve blood vessels during central nervous system infection which can lead to cerebrovascular complications. Infection is a recognized cause of secondary central nervous system vasculitis. It is very important not to miss the diagnosis of infection-related central nervous system vasculitis since specific antimicrobial therapy may be necessary; this chapter reviews the major implicated organisms.
