Neurological manifestations of enteric fever are well known. However, isolated cranial nerve palsies are rare. A 4-year-old boy and two girls aged 5 and 11 years with culture-proven typhoid fever are described, two of whom developed palatal palsy and the other sixth cranial nerve palsy. Following treatment, there was complete resolution of the cranial nerve palsies within 5-7 weeks. While palatal palsy is reported rarely, isolated sixth cranial nerve palsy associated with typhoid has not been reported previously.
肠热症的神经学表现众所周知。然而，孤立性颅神经麻痹却很罕见。本文描述了一名4岁男孩以及两名分别为5岁和11岁的女孩，他们均经培养证实患有伤寒热，其中两人出现了腭麻痹，另一人出现了第六颅神经麻痹。经过治疗，颅神经麻痹在5至7周内完全消退。虽然腭麻痹的报道很少，但此前尚未有与伤寒相关的孤立性第六颅神经麻痹的报道。
