Human Parechovirus encephalitis is an uncommon infection. Very few of the cases have been reported in the literature so far. These reports are mainly about neonatal encephalitis, primarily affecting preterm neonates. Parechovirus encephalitis in otherwise healthy pediatric populations is a rare entity. Here, we present two unique pediatric cases secondary to Parechovirus infection, one with hemidystonia and another with acute onset of altered mental status, confusion, and headache.
