Abstract
Scrub typhus is an acute febrile illness widely prevalent in the “Tsutsugamushi Triangle” region of the world. We present a case of a 52-year-old female patient with an atypical presentation of scrub typhus. This is an atypical presentation of scrub typhus because of unusual location of eschar, associated myocarditis, pancytopenia, and cerebellar involvement.
