Resumo: | Mononuclear meningitis are common during the course of type 1 human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) infection, opportunistic agents and tuberculosis being the most usual causes. Aseptic meningitis occurs during the acute retroviral syndrome, but is rare in the chronic stage. The authors present a 44 year-old female, with HIV-1 infection diagnosed in 1994, CD4 T lymphocytes below 200/µL and an immunological response to anti-retroviral therapy. She had a hospital admission for aseptic meningitis in 2000 and recovered without treatment. In 2005 she was admitted with fever and headaches. Her cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) had 152 leucocytes/µL (97% mononuclear), proteins 2.32 g/L and glucose 0.39 g/L. Microbiologic and serologic exams were negative for Mycobacteriae, Herpesvirus, Enterovirus, Cryptococcus, Borrelia and Treponema palidum. She had CD4 T lymphocytes 590/µL and her viral load was 9764 copies/mL in serum and 9998 copies/mL in CSF. She recovered again with no treatment. A cerebral MRI showed multiple sub-cortical enhanced signal foci in the temporal and frontal lobes, which had been present since 2000, asymptomatic and with no defined aetiology. Neurological manifestations in the acute HIV-1 infection correlate with viral load in CSF, but this is unknown for the chronic stage. Association between these manifestations and elevated viral load in CSF could represent a therapeutic escape with worse neurological prognosis. Direct HIV-1 infection should be included in the differential diagnosis of mononuclear meningitides in these patients, in which case, the therapeutic strategy should consider drugs with better central nervous system (CNS) penetration. |

A meningite asséptica está descrita na síndrome retrovírica aguda, mas raramente na fase crónica da doença.Apresentamos o caso de uma mulher de 44 anos, com diagnóstico de infecção pelo VIH-1, em 1994, nível de linfócitos T CD4 inferior a 200/µL e resposta imunológica ao tratamento anti-retrovírico. Internamento em 2000, por meningite asséptica, com resolução espontânea. Em 2005 internada por quadro agudo de cefaleias e febre. Apresentava líquor com 152 leucócitos/µL (97% mononucleares), 2,32g de proteínas/L e 0,39g de glicose/L. Os exames microbiológicos e serológicos foram negativos para Mycobacteriae, Herpesvirus, Enterovirus, Cryptococcus, Borrelia e Treponema palidum. Tinha 590 linfócitos T CD4/µL e carga vírica de 9764 cópias/mL no sangue e 9998 cópias/mL no líquor. Teve resolução sem qualquer tratamento. A RMN cerebral mostrava múltiplos focos de hipersinal sub-cortical temporais e frontais, presentes desde 2000, sem manifestações clínicas nem etiologia definida.As manifestações neurológicas na fase aguda da doença correlacionam-se com a carga vírica no líquor, mas esta relação é desconhecida na fase crónica. A associação entre estes quadros e uma carga vírica elevada no líquor poderá representar uma forma de escape terapêutico de pior prognóstico neurológico. A infecção directa pelo VIH-1 deve ser incluída no diagnóstico diferencial das meningites mononucleares nestes doentes e, nesses casos, a estratégia terapêutica anti-retrovírica deve considerar os fármacos com melhor penetração no sistema nervoso central (SNC).Sociedade Portuguesa de Medicina Interna2008-06-30info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttps://revista.spmi.pt/index.php/rpmi/article/view/1458Internal Medicine; Vol. 15 No. 2 (2008): Abril/ Junho; 104-107Medicina Interna; Vol. 15 N.º 2 (2008): Abril/ Junho; 104-1072183-99800872-671Xreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://revista.spmi.pt/index.php/rpmi/article/view/1458https://revista.spmi.pt/index.php/rpmi/article/view/1458/1005Magalhães, LuísaCarvalho, LuísaPaiva, PauloVasconcelos, Carlosinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2023-01-07T06:10:38Zoai:oai.revista.spmi.pt:article/1458Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T16:29:38.426536Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
