Parotitis due to mumps

Discussion:

The diagnosis of mumps was made based on laboratory findings:

  • leukocytosis
  • increased levels of mumps IgM

The mentioned above ultrasound findings correlate with the literature. The reason of developing mumps in this child despite regular vaccinations is unclear but it can be related to lower efficacy of the vaccination and decreased levels of mumps antibodies.
