Torsade de pointes as a complication of brainstem encephalitis.

J De Keyser, S De Boel, L Ceulemans, G Ebinger.   

Abstract

A case of brainstem encephalitis complicated by torsade de pointes is described. The possible occurrence of ventricular arrhythmias may contribute to the mortality in this condition. We recommend the admission of patients with brainstem encephalitis to an intensive care unit, for a period of electrocardiographic monitoring.
