Pneumonia pada Anak disertai Kejang Demam Kompleks

Pneumonia in early childhood can present with systemic manifestations such as complex febrile seizures. We report the case of a 2-year-5-month-old girl who experienced two generalized seizures within 24 hours accompanied by fever, without prominent respiratory complaints at onset. Physical examination revealed tachypnea and bilateral rhonchi, while chest radiography showed infiltrates and apical consolidation. Laboratory results showed leukocytosis and monocytosis. The patient was diagnosed with community-acquired pneumonia triggering complex febrile seizures. Management included antipyretics, phenobarbital, and intravenous ampicillin-sulbactam. Pneumonia was diagnosed as the trigger of complex febrile seizures, and the patient showed a good clinical response to supportive and antibiotic therapy
