Adenovirus is a common cause of upper and lower respiratory tract infections. Rarely, neurological manifestations may occur, ranging from mild aseptic meningitis to potentially fatal acute necrotising encephalopathy (ANE). Very little is known in regards to the exact pathogenesis of ANE in association with adenovirus. This report describes the presentation of a previously healthy 14-month-old girl diagnosed with adenovirus-induced ANE.
