Abstract

Immunoglobulins were estimated in the cerebrospinal fluid from 70 cases of nervous system diseases. Thirty childern with evidence of C.N.S. irritation without infection served as controls. The immunoglobulins were higher in cases with C.N. S infections. Within this group meningeal involvement (tubercular and pyogenic) resulted in a significant rise in IgG compared to viral encephalitis. The proportion of immunoglobulin in the CSF protein can be helpful in distinguishing TBM from PM.
