ABSTRACT
We report a case of Mediterranean spotted fever revealed in a 3 year-old girl by severe neurological symptoms as convulsions, feverish coma and generalized hypotonia, associated to acute diarrhoea and digestive haemorrhage. Contact with dogs, wrist bedsore and positive rickettsiosis seroconversion allowed us to have the diagnosis. Encephalic MRI showed an ischemic vasculocerebral accident that raises the problem of rickettsiosis lesions pathogenesis
