West Nile virus meningitis presenting with migrainous headache.
West Nile Virus (WNV) infection is a clinical picture that is transmitted from wild birds, its natural host, to humans through mosquitoes and generally shows an asymptomatic course. Influenza-like WNV fever is frequently seen in symptomatic individuals, and a neuroinvasive course is more rarely observed. Neuroinvasive WNV has a broad-spectrum profile of neurological signs and symptoms. WNV meningitis is one of the most common neuroinvasive forms of WNV, and it does not differ clinically and radiologically from other viral meningitis. Secondary headaches, which can mimic primary headaches, are an infectious factor that should be kept in mind in the etiology, especially in cases presenting in the summer months. In this study, a case of WNV meningitis presenting with a headache of migrainous character is presented.
