Abstract

Adenovirus is a DNA virus that causes many different clinical features in children. Adenovirus meningoencephalitis is a rare clinical picture. Adenovirus was detected in CSF PCR of a 5.5-month-old girl who was admitted to our pediatric emergency department due to fever, diarrhea and convulsions. Cranial MRI revealed centrum semiovale, occipital lobe involvement and dural sinus thrombosis. The patient was treated with anticoagulants. It was emphasized that adenovirus encephalitis was accompanied by dural sinus thrombosis.

Özet

Adenovirüs çocuklarda farklı birçok klinik tabloya neden olan bir DNA virüsüdür. Adenoviral menengioensefalit nadir görülen bir klinik tablodur. Ateş, ishal ve konvülziyon nedeniyle çocuk acil servisimize başvuran 5,5 aylık kız hastanın BOS PCR incelemesinde adenovirüs saptandı. Kranial MR görüntülemesinde sentrum semiovale, oksipital lob tutulumu ve dural sinüs trombozu saptandı. Hastaya antikoagülan tedavi uygulandı. Bu olgu nedeni ile adenovirüs meningoensefalitine dural sinüs trombozunun da eşlik edebileceği unutulmamalıdır.
