Abstract
- Mumps is an acute communicable self-limiting swelling of the parotid or other salivary glands. Various organs can be involved including the testes, central nervous system, mammary glands, ovary, pancreas, kidneys, and heart. We hereby present a rare case of an 18-year-old unvaccinated male with acute disseminated encephalomyelitis following mumps without parotitis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
