RESUMO

The influenza virus causes epidemics and pandemics with high morbidity and mortality. According to the World Health Organization, this virus causes 3-5 million cases of severe illness and 250,000 to 500,000 deaths each year. The disease is mainly respiratory and the most common complications are pneumonia, exacerbation of underlying diseases and less frequently respiratory complications. We report a 6-year-old patient with meningoencephalitis due to a new influenza A (IA), strain pH1N1, with viral documentation in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). We provide detailed clinical, laboratory and imaging of the case, which responded favorably to sequels. Knowledge of this form of presentation is of great clinical and epidemiological significance due to the limited scientific evidence published internationally.

RESUMO

El virus influenza produce epidemias y pandemias con alta morbilidad-mortalidad. Según datos de la Organización Mundial de la Salud, causa 3-5 millones de casos de enfermedad grave y 250 000 a 500 000 muertes cada año. La enfermedad es fundamentalmente respiratoria y las complicaciones más frecuentes son: neumonía, descompensación de enfermedades subyacentes y, menos frecuentemente, complicaciones no respiratorias. Se presenta un paciente de 6 años con meningoencefalitis por la nueva cepa influenza A (IA) pH1N1, con documentación viral en líquido cefalorraquídeo (LCR). Se detallan hallazgos clínicos, de laboratorio e imágenes del caso, el cual evolucionó favorablemente con secuelas. Resulta de gran importancia clínica y epidemiológica el conocimiento de esta forma de presentación, debido a la escasa evidencia científica publicada internacionalmente.
