Latar belakang. Infeksi pada susunan saraf pusat (SSP) dapat memberikan dampak permanen, seperti ganguan fungsi kognitif dan fisik apabila terlambat mendapatkan penanganan. Perubahan komposisi cairan serebrospinalis (LCS) dapat digunakan sebagai indikator pada infeksi SSP. Studi kepustakaan pada karakteristik perubahan komposisi LCS masih sulit ditemukan sehingga diperlukan studi lebih lanjut mengenai hal ini.Tujuan. Mengetahui gambaran LCS pada pasien anak dengan infeksi susunan saraf pusat.Metode. Deskriptif potong lintang terhadap rekam medis pasien anak dengan infeksi susunan saraf pusat rawat inap di RSUP Dokter Hasan Sadikin Bandung periode Januari 2015-Agustus 2019.Hasil. Dari 211 subjek penelitian dengan rentang usia 1 bulan hingga 18 tahun diperoleh rerata usia 7,18, median usia 5, dan standar deviasi usia 6,53.

Background Kleine–Levin syndrome (KLS) is a disease with periodic hypersomnolence accompanied by abnormal behavior with a rare prevalence in female. Case presentation Here, we report a young lady with chief complaint of hypersomnolence for 6 years of visits and any history of sleep attack, sleep paralysis, and cataplexy. Polysomnography was performed for the patient. The respiratory disturbance index was normal. In MSLT the patient had two SOREMs with mean sleep latency of 7 min. She was diagnosed as Kleine–Levin syndrome as the sleepiness symptoms had a periodic pattern without other characteristics of central hypersomnolence disorders. The patient did not report behavioral characteristics of KLS reported in previous literature. She improved spontaneously after a while in follow-ups without any further treatment. Conclusions Although KLS is reported rarely in female gender and there are previous defined behavioral symptoms for this syndrome, periodic pattern of sleepiness should raise this diagnosis after exclusion of other hypersomnolence causes.
