  • Title: Presence of Chlamydophila psittaci DNA in the central nervous system of a patient with status epilepticus.
    Author: Walder G, Schönherr H, Hotzel H, Speth C, Oehme A, Dierich MP, Würzner R.
    Journal: Scand J Infect Dis; 2003; 35(1):71-3. PubMed ID: 12685890.
    Abstract:
    This study reports an extraordinarily severe and prolonged course of neuroornithosis with generalized status epilepticus as an initial symptom. Direct invasion of the central nervous system by Chlamydophila psittaci was confirmed by the demonstration of specific DNA in the patient's cerebrospinal fluid. The patient recovered slowly under administration of doxycycline.
