(G05.0*) Encephalitis, myelitis and encephalomyelitis in bacterial diseases classified elsewhere

Encephalitis, myelitis, and encephalomyelitis in bacterial diseases classified elsewhere occur when bacterial agents invade the brain and/or spinal cord, leading to inflammation, swelling, and damage to the affected tissues. this can be caused by direct invasion, or by the body's immune response to the presence of the bacteria. symptoms can range from mild confusion and fatigue to seizures, paralysis, coma, and death.

Encephalitis, myelitis and encephalomyelitis in bacterial diseases classified elsewhere is a condition caused by a bacterial infection that results in inflammation of the brain and spinal cord. the bacteria can enter the body through the bloodstream, or through direct contact with infected tissue. this can lead to an infection of the brain and spinal cord, which can cause swelling, irritation and damage to the nerves, leading to a wide range of symptoms such as fever, headache, confusion, seizures, paralysis, and even death. treatment typically includes antibiotics to clear the infection, and supportive care to reduce the risk of complications.
