Abducens nerve palsy and meningitis by Rickettsia typhi. [PDF]

open access: yesAm J Trop Med Hyg, 2015
Patients with rickettsial infection may present with encephalitis or meningitis but neurologic involvement is rare in murine typhus. Here, we report two patients with Rickettsia typhi meningitis who presented with cranial neuropathy, presumably caused by two distinct disease processes.
