Mycoplasma Encephalitis

We report the case of a 12-year-old patient who presented with acute onset of orofacial tics, motor restlessness, compulsive behavior, and cerebellar symptoms. Cerebrospinal fluid examination demonstrated lymphocytic meningitis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

An 11-year-old boy presented with a new onset seizure. [neurology.org]

Patients with M pneumoniae –associated encephalitis are predominantly pediatric, and their presentations are clinically similar to enterovirus encephalitis, although they frequently require intensive care with prolonged hospitalizations. [pediatrics.aappublications.org]

    They have been associated with such conditions as cerebral palsy, residual brain damage, undefined infections, infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy, Menkes’ kinky-hair syndrome, and congenital muscular dystrophy. 2–4 There is one case report of extreme spindles [neurology.org]

  • Motor Restlessness

    We report the case of a 12-year-old patient who presented with acute onset of orofacial tics, motor restlessness, compulsive behavior, and cerebellar symptoms. Cerebrospinal fluid examination demonstrated lymphocytic meningitis. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Visual Hallucination

    The clinical manifestations included fever (94%), altered consciousness (65%), seizure (41%), personality or behavior changes (29%), meningeal sign (24%), visual hallucination (24%), ataxia (12%), Guillain-Barré syndrome (6%), blurred vision (6%), and [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  • Dysarthria

    Although these six patients completely recovered without sequela, dysarthria persisted in one patient with MERS and cerebellar lesions. Mild intellectual impairment persisted in one patient with limbic encephalitis. [ci.nii.ac.jp]

The routine diagnostic workup of M. pneumoniae encephalitis should therefore aim for the detection of M. pneumoniae antibodies in both CSF and serum, in addition to M. pneumoniae PCR in CSF. [journals.plos.org]

Workup should include a thorough history and physical exam to determine if the clinical course could be consistent with AE. [aealliance.org]

Treatment with corticosteroids has been proposed for this illness, but experience with this therapy is limited to case reports and small series; neither efficacy nor appropriate courses of treatment are well established. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prognosis Encephalitis causes high rates of illness and death. [ 1 ] The prognosis depends on the age of the patient and the underlying aetiology. [patient.info]

Conclusions Prognosis of M.pneumoniae -associated MERS is excellent. Type II MERS may increase a risk of neurological sequelae. [bmcinfectdis.biomedcentral.com]
