Abstract
We report a case of Mycoplasma pneumoniae meningoencephalitis in which the primary neurologic manifestation was diplopia. Other neurologic f indings included bilateral Babinski signs, mental confusion, and bladd er incontinence. The patient responded to a course of minocycline and made an uneventful recovery. We report the first known case of Mycopla sma meningoencephalitis with diplopia.
