Adolescent with neuropsychiatric symptoms associated with novel influenza A (H1N1) virus infection.
Neurologic complications have been described previously in association with seasonal influenza A or B viruses, but the frequency with which these occur with novel influenza A (H1N1) virus infection is unknown. We describe a case of an adolescent with a bizarre neuropsychiatric picture associated with novel influenza A (H1N1) virus infection.
