Abstract

Abstract Scrub typhus commonly presents with rash, lymphadenopathy, and nonspecific symptoms after a prodrome of 4–5 days. CNS complications are known associations with it, but presenting with neurological symptoms is an uncommon presentation, especially in children. We report a rare case of scrub typhus presenting with refractory seizures in a 9-year-old child, not previously reported in children from India.
