Abstract
We present a toddler with acute sphenoid sinusitis presenting as status epilepticus with fever, intracranial abscess and meningitis. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis suggested bacterial meningitis, but polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test was positive for human herpes virus-6 (HHV-6). We highlight diagnosis and treatment of this uncommon condition.
