Abstract
A patient with severe pneumonia, central nervous system infection, and reversible splenial lesion syndrome was described in this article. Metagenomic next-generation sequencing of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and cerebrospinal fluid revealed chlamydiapsittacosis. After treatment with minocycline, the patient was cured. His respiratory and neurological symptoms all disappeared.
