Abstract

Introduction

Dystextia refers to a kind of aphasia. It is the inability or the difficulty to text with a mobile phone. It has been described 15 years ago in central neurologic pathologies like stroke, migraine with aura, neurologic tumor disease.

Case presentation

We report the case of a 15-year-old boy who presented a febrile dystextia with acute insular lobes lesions in MRI. Human Simplex Virus 1 and lymphocytosis were present in the CSF and intravenous treatment with aciclovir has been initiated. Clinical signs were completely reversible.

Discussion

This case enhances the importance of emerging symptoms related to the common use of 21st century technology—such as smartphones—especially among younger patients. It also corroborates the association between the insular lobe and dystextia.

Conclusion

This is the first report of herpetic meningoencephalitis revealed through febrile dystextia in a child.

期刊介绍： The European Journal of Neurology is the official journal of the European Academy of Neurology and covers all areas of clinical and basic research in neurology, including pre-clinical research of immediate translational value for new potential treatments. Emphasis is placed on major diseases of large clinical and socio-economic importance (dementia, stroke, epilepsy, headache, multiple sclerosis, movement disorders, and infectious diseases).
