ABSTRACT
Acute cerebellitis is an inflammatory illness that may manifest as a primary, para-infectious, or post-infectious disease. The clinical manifestations of acute cerebellitis are traditionally characterized by fever, vomiting, headache, and altered sensorium, accompanied by impaired cerebellar function corroborated by neuroradiography alterations. Acute cerebellitis may lead to a potentially fatal increase in pressure within the skull, requiring immediate and critical neurosurgical surgery. It is important to note that cerebellar symptoms may not be evident initially. This report provides a comprehensive analysis of a case of a 57-year-old male patient who had been diagnosed with acute cerebellitis caused by an infection with Salmonella typhimurium.
