Abstract

There are limited data on HHV-7 meningitis and this systematic review used electronic search to gather pieces of evidence regarding its characteristics. Nine articles were included which three were case reports and the rest of the articles were retrospective studies. Altogether, 32 cases were described in the literature that 13 were females and 26 were aged less than 16 years old. The HHV-7 meningitis has been reported in any season, especially in winter. It affected both immunocompetent and immunocompromised individuals and mostly presented with fever and headache, however rash and seizure have also been documented. The CSF analysis in general showed an elevated range of cell count with lymphocytic predominance and normal to slightly elevated protein levels. Thirteen patients did not receive treatment for HHV-7 meningitis and full recovery was gained in the majority of cases after about 10 days. This review summarizes characteristics of HHV-7 meningitis in the literature, and yet epidemiological studies are needed to shed more light which eventually could be helpful for the diagnosis and management of this disease.
