Improvement of Mycoplasma pneumoniae–Associated Acute Cerebellar Ataxia and Possible Encephalopathy After Intravenous Immunoglobulin

open access: yesCase Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Mycoplasma pneumoniae (M. pneumoniae) can cause acute postinfectious cerebellar ataxia and encephalitis/encephalopathy. Although ataxia can be self‐limited, prolonged duration of symptoms and long‐term neurological sequelae that persist for months or more are associated with both conditions.

Severe Necrotizing Community‐Acquired Pneumonia and Bilateral Empyema in an Immunocompetent Patient due to Fusobacterium necrophorum

open access: yesCase Reports in Pulmonology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Necrotizing pneumonia and empyema caused by Fusobacterium necrophorum are uncommon. The classical presentation of Lemierre′s syndrome, characterized by pharyngotonsillitis and internal jugular vein thrombosis, is not always observed, and incomplete and atypical variants can cause diagnostic uncertainty and delay in treatment.
