摘要
Acute demyelinating encephalomyelitis usually follows viral infections and its occurrence following malarial infection is very uncommon. We report a 12-year-old girl who presented with encephalopathy and generalized convulsions following complete recovery from the Plasmodium falciparum infection. Diagnosis of ADEM was made on the basis of brain MRI findings.
