Abstract

Acute brain dysfunction, commonly diagnosed as encephalitis or encephalopathy, occurs in association with influenza. The diagnosis is always difficult to establish due to the absence of characteristic clinical symptoms and valid diagnostic criteria. Acute influenza-associated encephalopathy/ encephalitis (AIE) mainly occurs in the pediatric population, while it is a rare complication in adults. We present an overview of acute cases of IAE in patients treated at the Banja Luka Infectious Diseases Clinic in the 2019 flu season.
