Peri-lead edema (PLE) after deep brain stimulation may mimic brain infection on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). We present a case of symptomatic PLE with annular contrast enhancement on MRI suggestive of an infectious cause. We show that careful clinical evaluation and laboratory testing, in addition to neuroimaging, are essential to guide treatment and to avoid unnecessary interventions in PLE cases with a favorable spontaneous course.
