Background: Mild encephalitis/encephalopathy with reversible splenial lesion (MERS) is a clinical-radiological syndrome characterized by transient central nervous system symptoms and a reversible lesion in the splenium of the corpus callosum (SCC) on magnetic resonance (MR). We reported a case of adult-onset MERS with uncommon presentation and reviewed the existing literature.
Methods: We described a case of adult-onset MERS with uncommon symptoms and signs and performed a systematic review of case series including more than four patients of adult-onset (> 14 years old) MERS, from January 2000 to December 2022.

The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted individuals differently, and there's been a growing body of evidence pointing to neurological complications caused by the virus. However, our understanding of the range of neurological issues linked to SARS-CoV-2 infection in children is limited. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to assess the abnormal neuroimaging findings in pediatric COVID-19 patients, shedding light on this crucial aspect of the disease's impact on children.

Mild encephalopathy with a reversible splenial lesion (MERS) is a rare phenomenon, which shows transient lesion in corpus callosum and causes temporary encephalopathy features. A disturbance of consciousness and abnormal and delirious behavior are the most significant neurological symptoms. A seven-year-old child with a history of fever and cough was admitted to our hospital due to sudden bilateral blindness.

Article Synopsis
- Clinically mild encephalitis/encephalopathy with reversible splenial lesion is marked by temporary neuropsychiatric symptoms and abnormal MRI results showing hyperintensity in the splenium of the corpus callosum.
- A case study revealed postmortem findings of intramyelinic edema and other brain changes in a patient with hypoglycemia and sepsis, suggesting a link between cytotoxic edema and the syndrome.
- Researchers propose that the term "cytotoxic lesions of the corpus callosum" may be relevant for understanding this condition and others with similar causes.
