Previous infection, both of bacterial and viral origin, is reported to represent an independent risk factor for ischemic stroke in children and young adults. The authors describe the case of an immunocompetent young woman who developed a middle cerebral artery thrombosis and stroke in course of a recurrence of human parvovirus B19 (PVB19) infection. A previously healthy 25-year-old woman developed right ataxic hemiparesis, 5 days after the onset of a flulike syndrome. Magnetic resonance imaging of the brain revealed acute multiple left frontal-parietal ischemic lesions. Conventional and magnetic resonance angiograms revealed a stenosis in the left middle cerebral artery. Nested polymerase chain reaction detected PVB19-specific DNA sequences in the cerebrospinal fluid and blood, and serology showed high titers of high avidity immunoglobulin G against PVB19. After 10 days, the patient's recovery was nearly complete. One month later, PVB19 disappeared from the serum, whereas it persisted in the peripheral blood mononuclear cells. This case report suggests that PVB19 infection may play a trigger role in the development of ischemic stroke, and that it should be considered in the screening of infectious risk factors for cerebrovascular diseases in young adults.
