| Popis: | We report 2 neonates with human parechoviruses type 3 encephalitis. Both newborns presented with fever, irritability and seizures. Cerebrospinal fluid analyses were normal, but magnetic resonance imaging revealed white matter damage, suggesting human parechoviruse infection. Human parechoviruses type 3-RNA was detected in cerebrospinal fluid samples and in blood, stool, urine and respiratory samples, indicating the dissemination of the virus. |
