  • Title: [Long central apnea as the chief symptom of aseptic meningoencephalitis in a 6-week-old infant].
    Author: Kurz H, Jakelj J, Aberle SW, Rohrbach DE, Dremsek PA, Sacher M.
    Journal: Wien Klin Wochenschr; 1999 Apr 09; 111(7):294-7. PubMed ID: 10355041.
    Abstract:
    Viral infections can cause apnoea, bradycardia, and desaturation events in preterm and new born infants. These symptoms do not always occur in older infants. A link between virus infection, apnoea, apparent life threatening events (ALTE) and sudden infant death (SID) is speculated. We report a 6-week-old infant with long central apnoea as the first and main symptom of meningoencephalitis caused by enterovirus.
