Abstract

The pathophysiology behind neuropsychiatric SLE (NPSLE) remains poorly understood and its clinical and radiological manifestations are highly varied. In this report, we present a complex case of an adolescent female patient with a three-week history of systemic symptoms (fever, nausea, vomiting, weight loss, polyarticular joint pain), progressive motor weakness, tremor, and altered mental status. Physical examination was significant for oromandibular and cervical dystonia rigidity, and general weakness with imposed right-sided hemiparesis. A head MRI demonstrated bilateral hyperintense lesions of the basal ganglia and brainstem, without restricted diffusion. The patient was diagnosed with NPSLE, lupus nephritis, electrolyte imbalance, severe hypoalbuminemia, lupus cardiomyopathy, autoimmune hemolytic anemia, pulmonary tuberculosis, and sepsis. The patient was given treatment in the ICU with pulse dose corticosteroids, intravenous antibiotics, intravenous immunoglobulins (IVIg), and supportive treatment with correction of hematologic and electrolyte abnormalities. Her condition improved rapidly. Full alertness was regained, and symptoms of oromandibular dystonia, tremor, and weakness diminished significantly. A follow-up MRI three weeks later revealed the complete disappearance of lesions, which we attribute to the resolution of the inflammatory process in the brain.

Abstract

Introduction: Cases of tuberculosis is still highly prevalent in the world, including Indonesia.Tuberculous meningoencephalitis (TBME) is the most severe form of tuberculosis. This study aims to establish the factors affecting prognosis in TBME. Objective: To Identify the clinical factors that affect the prognosis of tuberculous meningoencephalitis patients. Material and Methods: This is cross-sectional study evaluating factors (clinical features, imaging, and treatment) affecting prognosis in TBME patients who underwent treatment in Siloam Hospitals Lippo Village. Univariate analyses was done, followed by bivariate analyses with logistic regression to compare factors between good (Glasgow outcome scale [GOS] 4-5) and poor (GOS 1-3) prognosis. Results and Discussion: 64 patients were included. On univariate analysis, significant differences was found between Glasgow coma scale (GCS) scores (p=0.012), clinical features of meningeal irritation (p=0.004), findings of hydrocephalus (p=0.023) and vasculitis/infarction (p=0.020) on imaging, antibiotic use (p=0.013), and MRC grading (p=0.008). On logistic regression, 4 factors were found to be significant: headache (OR 5.398 95% CI 1.165-25.008, p=0.031), meningeal irritation (OR 0.146 95% CI 0.026-0.813, p=0.028), hydrocephalus (OR 0.167 95% CI 0.032-0.881, p=0.035), and antibiotic use (OR 0.155 95% CI 0.034-0.717, p=0.017). Conclusion: Clinical manifestations of meningeal irritation and altered consciousness, imaging findings of hydrocephalus and vasculitis/infarction, and antibiotic usage is associated with poor prognosis, while presence of headache is associated with a better prognosis.
