Abstract

Japanese spotted fever (JSF), first reported in 1984, is a rickettsial disease caused by Rickettsia japonica. Until now, affliction of the central nervous system has been rarely reported. Here we report two cases of JSF associated with a central nervous system disorder such as meningoencephalitis.
