Abstract

Pathologic changes of brain in five burned children with septicemia and epileptiform convulsion are reported in this article. The important findings are cerebral vasculitis, focal malacia, focal hemorrhage and cerebral edema. Author considers that these lesions result from the effect of bacterial toxin, particular pyocyaneus toxin and are the direct causes for epileptiform convulsion and death.
