A case of meningoencephalitis associated with G1P[8] rotavirus infection in a Japanese child
2007
We report the case of a 2-y, 11-month-old boy with G1P[8] rotavirus infection accompanied by acute meningoencephalitis. Substitutions in both the VP4 and VP7 genes were found in the identified strain. A commonly circulating G1P[8] rotavirus with such mutations might be associated with the pathogenesis of CNS complications, including meningoencephalitis.
