lüll Neurobrucellosis in childhood: six new cases and a review of the literature Omar FZ; Zuberi S; Minns RADev Med Child Neurol 1997[Nov]; 39 (11): 762-5Neurobrucellosis accounts for <1% of cases of brucellosis in children. Six new cases of neurobrucellosis are presented and data from 39 previously published cases are analysed. The incidence is equal in males and females, and the source of infection is likely to be unpasteurised milk. Clinical presentation varies from severe meningoencephalitis or peripheral neuropathy/radiculopathy to behavioural disturbance. Diagnostic certainty requires isolation of the organism from the CSF, but as this is rarely possible serological diagnosis can be performed with the Coombs test on the CSF. Treatment requires combination antibiotic therapy and should continue for at least 8 weeks.|Animals[MESH]|Brucellosis/*complications/diagnosis/drug therapy/transmission[MESH]|Cerebrospinal Fluid/microbiology[MESH]|Child[MESH]|Child, Preschool[MESH]|Coombs Test[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Incidence[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Meningitis, Bacterial/*microbiology[MESH]|Milk/microbiology[MESH]|Peripheral Nervous System Diseases/*microbiology[MESH] |
