ÖZET
Grip virüsü (H1N1) enfeksiyonu, diğer grip virüsü enfeksiyonlarında
olduğu gibi ensefalite neden olabilir. Altı yaşındaki kız hastada grip
benzeri semptomların ortaya çıkmasından 3 gün sonra ateş ve nörolojik
semptomlar gelişmiştir. Hastanın kraniyal manyetik rezonans görüntülemesinde
viral ensefalit ile uyumlu olarak, bilateral talamus, beyin sapı ve serebral
hemisfer gibi multifokal lezyonlar izlendi. Fizik tedavi ve
rehabilitasyon programının sonucunda, hastanın sağ omuz abdüksiyon ve
dış rotasyonu dışındaki nörolojik semptomları düzeldi. Elektromiyografide
sağ aksiller sinir lezyonu tespit edildi. Hastada H1N1 ensefalite ek olarak
aynı enfeksiyon nedeniyle aksiller sinir tutulumu düşünüldü. İnfluenza A
H1N1 virüsü, çeşitli nörolojik medikal durumlarla ortaya çıkabilir. Genel
durum bozukluğu, bilinç değişikliği gibi merkezi ve periferik sinir sisteminin
birlikte tutulabileceği bu olgu sunumu yardımıyla akılda tutulmalıdır.

ABSTRACT
The influenza virus (H1N1) infection can be causative of the
encephalitis, as with other influenza virus infections. In a six-year-old female
patient, fever, and neurological symptoms developed three days after
influenza-like symptoms appeared. Multifocal lesions, including bilateral
thalamus, brain stem, and cerebral hemisphere, compatible with viral encephalitis
were monitored on cranial magnetic resonance imaging of the patient.
A result of physical therapy and rehabilitation program, her
neurological symptoms except for abduction and external rotation of the
right shoulder improved. Right axillary nerve lesion was detected on electromyoneurographic.
The patient was considered to have axillary nerve involvement
due to the same infection in addition to H1N1 encephalitis.
Influenza A H1N1 virus can appear with various neurological medical
courses. It should be kept in mind with the help of this case report that central
and peripheral nervous system can be involved together such as deterioration
of general condition and change in consciousness.
