  • Title: Transient cerebral salt wasting following scrub typhus infection- A case report.
    Author: Francis KR, Premarathna R.
    Journal: Ceylon Med J; 2022 Jun 30; 67(2):66-68. PubMed ID: 37609801.
    Abstract:
    Cerebral salt wasting (hyponatraemia associated with renal sodium loss and hypovolumia) has been reported secondary to intra-cerebral pathology and following certain infections. Cerebral salt wasting following typhus infection has been reported rarely. We report a case of transient cerebral salt wasting that occurred during the convalescent phase of scrub typhus infection resulting in severe symptomatic hyponatraemia.
