Abstract

Primary amoebic meningoencephalitis (PAM), often known as amoebic meningitis, is a dangerous brain inflammatory illness. The amoeba Naegleria fowleri is to blame. The Naegleria fowleri amoeba (a single-celled organism) thrives in warm, untreated water at temperatures ranging from 25 to 40 degrees Celsius.Amebic meningoencephalitis is a sporadic central nervous system illness caused by free-living amoebae found primarily in freshwater lakes and rivers. Primary amebic meningoencephalitis (PAM) has symptoms that are similar to bacterial meningitis, while granulomatous amebic meningoencephalitis (GAE) has symptoms that are similar to a brain abscess or meningitis.Every year, millions of people are exposed to the amoeba that causes naegleria infection, yet only a small percentage of them become ill.
