Respiratory tract infections are common in Down syndrome. A 24-year-old male patient with Down syndrome with concurrent diabetes mellitus under-went antibiotic treatment with a diagnosis of lung abscess in an external center with complaints of fever and vomiting, but was referred to us after his symp-toms did not regress. Despite the improvement in the lung abscess noted in a radiological examination, the patient was identified with a brain abscess upon an examination due to the continuation of fever, vomit-ing and the onset of headache. Particular attention should be paid to additional abscess foci such as brain abscess in cases with lung abscess with an underlying comorbidity.

Keywords: Down syndrome, lung abscess, brain abscess
