  • Title: Magnetic Resonance Imaging Findings of Mumps Meningoencephalitis with Bilateral Hippocampal Lesions without Preceding Acute Parotitis: A Case Report.
    Author: Woo AR, Lee HY, Lim MK, Kang YH, Cho SG, Choi SH, Baek JH.
    Journal: Korean J Radiol; 2017; 18(2):378-382. PubMed ID: 28246518.
    Abstract:
    Meningitis is a common central nervous system (CNS) complication of the mumps, a viral infection, but encephalitis and meningoencephalitis are less common in mumps. We describe magnetic resonance imaging findings of acute mumps meningoencephalitis in a 32-year-old male who showed bilateral hippocampal lesions without preceding parotitis. Although it is rare, hippocampal involvement should be considered a CNS complication of mumps infection.
