Abstract

Enterovirus is a known cause of central nervous system infection in the neonatal population and typically has a benign course; however, neurologic complications have been reported. We describe what we believe to be the first documented case of enteroviral meningoencephalitis complicated by central diabetes insipidus in a neonate.

Keywords: Coxsackie B1; diabetes insipidus; enterovirus; meningitis; newborn.
