Paediatric Australian bat lyssavirus encephalomyelitis - sequential MRI appearances from symptom onset to death.

Umesh Shetty1, Mark Phillips2, Joshua R Francis3, Mark Walsh2.   

Abstract

Human infection with Australian bat lyssavirus is extremely rare. Here we present the craniospinal findings in a fatal case of Australian bat lyssavirus infection in an 8-year-old child. MRI plays a very important role, not only in the diagnostic work-up of Australian bat lyssavirus infection but also in the prognostic assessment.
