[CIS PIDD] [cis-pidd] HHV6 meningoencephalitis

[Maite de la Morena]

Dear all
I have seen a 4 yof who developed HHV6 meningoencephalitis at age 3 and now has seizures, now severe developmental delay.
Had been achieving milestones appropriately until then

Negative serologies for CMV, EBV, HSV but + IgG for HHV6 (Negative IgM),
serum Igs and specific response to vaccines normal, Normal flow and normal mitogens and antigens .
Normal perforin, NK function and CTLs and TLR signaling ( ARUP )

She has not received MMR or varicella. I am hesitant to give these.
Would appreciate your comments
Thank you
Maite
