Case Report - Rickettsial Encephelitis
Abstract: Rickettsial meningoencephalitis is a relatively under - diagnosed entity, probably due to the low index of suspicion and the lack of definitive diagnostic facilities in developing countries. This case was presented to highlight the importance of clinical suspicion mainly in endemic areas, the potential severity of the disease, and the need of early initiation of therapy to prevent mortality and long term neurological morbidity.
Keywords: Rickettsial meningoencephalitis, maculopapular rash
