SUTHAR, Pokhraj P. et al. Human parechovirus meningoencephalitis. S. Afr. J. radiol. (Online) [online]. 2023, vol.27, n.1, pp.1-5. ISSN 2078-6778. http://dx.doi.org/10.4102/sajr.v27i1.2589.
Human parechovirus-3 (HPeV-3) infection is one of the differential diagnoses of neonatal meningoencephalitis. A 13-day-old full-term female neonate presented with a seizure. Brain MRI showed classic imaging findings of the meningoencephalitis which was confirmed on cerebrospinal fluid analysis. CONTRIBUTION: The HPeV-3 is an emerging pathogen for neonatal meningoencephalitis. The case in this study is unique with classic imaging findings, which are not routinely encountered in day-to-day practice. This case raises reader awareness.
