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.

Abstract

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.
