Angiostrongylus cantonensis Meningo‐Encephalitis in Children—Heightened Awareness Needed During Prolonged Wet Weather Conditions

open access: yesJournal of Paediatrics and Child Health, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 472-481, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Angiostrongylus cantonensis, the leading cause of eosinophilic meningoencephalitis, is well established in eastern Australia. Prolonged wet weather in Queensland during 2021–2022 coincided with anecdotal reports of increased neuroangiostrongyliasis cases, prompting an evaluation of paediatric cases from 2013 to 2022.
