Hepatitis E virus and Klebsiella pneumoniae co-infection detected by metagenomics next-generation sequencing in a patient with central nervous system and bloodstream Infection: a case report
Background Hepatitis E virus (HEV) is the most common cause of acute viral hepatitis worldwide with major prevalence in the developing countries and can cause extrahepatic disease including the nervous system. Central nervous system infections caused by HEV are rare and caused by HEV together with other bacteria are even rarer. Case presentation A 68-year-old man was admitted to the hospital due to a headache lasting for 6 days and a fever for 3 days. Lab tests showed significantly raised indicators of inflammation, cloudy cerebrospinal fluid, and liver dysfunction. Hepatitis E virus and Klebsiella pneumoniae were identified in the blood and cerebrospinal fluid using metagenomic next-generation sequencing. The patient received meropenem injection to treat K. pneumoniae infection, isoglycoside magnesium oxalate injection and polyene phosphatidylcholine injection for liver protection. After ten days of treatment, the patient improved and was discharged from the hospital. Conclusion Metagenomic next-generation sequencing, which can detect various types of microorganisms, is powerful for identifying complicated infections..
