Sumario: | Abstract Rhombencephalitis is an orphan disease of multiple causes that may manifest with facial palsy, limb ataxia and reduced consciousness. Up to now it is described after COVID-19 infection and in this (personal) case was found up to 8 weeks after Comirnaty vaccination. So far, we do not fully understand the pathophysiological characteristics of encephalitis associated with SARS-CoV-2. In rare cases, vaccination may cause an immunological reaction and delayed inflammation, the consequences of which we have not yet deciphered. Rhombencephalitis should be considered as a rare potential mRNA-associated vaccination side effect. |
