作者描述了一名大学生的无菌性脑膜炎病例，该病例最终归因于淋巴细胞脉络膜脑膜炎病毒（LCMV）感染。作者还对 LCMV 感染、流行病学和公共卫生影响进行了综述。提供者应该意识到 LCMV 是导致大学生脑膜炎的一个原因，尤其是那些有啮齿类动物接触史的大学生。
The authors describe a case of aseptic meningitis in a college student that was ultimately attributed to infection with lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV). The authors also provide a review of LCMV infection, epidemiology, and public health implications. Providers should be aware of LCMV as a cause of meningitis in college students, especially those with a history of rodent exposure.
