- W4377139320 abstract "This case report highlights the importance of considering scrub typhus as a differential diagnosis for acute encephalitis with cranial nerve palsy in the region of the tsutsugamushi triangle.Scrub typhus is a zoonotic rickettsiosis caused by the bacterium Orientia tsutsugamushi. This disease is endemic to a region called the tsutsugamushi triangle that extends from Southeast Asia to the Pacific Ocean. We report a 17-year-old girl from western Nepal who presented with fever, headache, vomiting, and altered sensorium, as well as bilateral lateral rectus palsy, dysphagia, regurgitation of food, dysarthria, and left-sided upper motor neuron type facial palsy. Following laboratory and imaging tests, the patient was diagnosed with scrub typhus and was treated successfully with high-dose dexamethasone and doxycycline. This case highlights the importance of considering scrub typhus in the differential diagnosis of encephalitis with cranial nerve palsy, especially in the region of the tsutsugamushi triangle. It also emphasizes the need for timely diagnosis and treatment of scrub typhus to prevent the development of various complications and ensure earlier recovery of patients." @default.
