摘要
Novel human astroviruses (HAstVs) have recently been implicated as rare causes of fatal encephalitis in immunocompromised patients, for which there is no proven treatment. We report 2 cases from our institution in which HAstV-VA1 was detected in the cerebrospinal fluid by metagenomic next-generation sequencing after the initial evaluation revealed no etiology. We report two children with HAstV-VA1 encephalitis detected by metagenomic next-generation sequencing. Although rare, awareness of this emerging pathogen as a cause of encephalitis in immunocompromised children is critical, given the associated poor prognosis.
