Tuberculomas are usually infratentorial in children, and supratentorial lesions predominate in adults. We present a 4-year-old girl with multiple seizures, papilloedema and brisk reflexes. On investigation, she was found to have a large left parafalcine tuberculoma. She was treated with antitubercular treatment (ATT) and steroids. The child improved, seizures stopped and the papilloedema gradually disappeared. Follow-up magnetic resonance imaging brain after 8 months showed a mild reduction in the size of the lesion. Child is on regular follow-up.
