摘要

Sirs: A 36 year-old German female had a history of fluctuating, increasing headache, abnormal fatigue and recurrent slight fever over 6 months, 3 months after she had been to Thailand.Physical examination revealed meningism as the only pathological sign. Differential blood cell count showed an increased number of eosinophils (12 %). IgE level was elevated. Repeated electroencephalographies and spinal and cerebral contrast enhanced MRI were unremarkable. Two lumbar punctures performed at one month intervals revealed 200 to 300 leucocytes per microliter, predominantly eosino-philic cells, a slightly elevated protein level (55 mg/dl) and blood-CSF barrier dysfunction. The immunoblot for Angiostrongylus cantonensis performed at the Department of Helminthology at Mahidol University in Bangkok was positive (Fig. 1) as well as the ELISA for toxocariasis at the Department of Infectious Diseases and Tropical Medicine at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat in Munich. Infection with Borrelia burgdorferi, Treponema pallidum, human immunodeficiency virus, other helminths and fungi and Plasmodium falciparum were excluded by serological tests and blood film microscopy. No findings supported the diagnosis of vasculitis or indicated haematological malignancy.
