The management of patients with suspected viral encephalitis has been revolutionised in recent years with improved imaging and viral diagnostics, better antiviral and immunomodulatory therapies, and enhanced neurointensive care. Despite this, disasters in patient management are sadly not uncommon. While some patients are attacked with all known antimicrobials with little thought to investigatio...
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) encephalitis is a rare but often fatal disease if left untreated. A 50-year-old woman was admitted with lethargy, confusion, dysphasia and cough. MRI brain demonstrated bilateral temporal and perisylvian hyperintense signal abnormality extending into the cingulate gyrus, typical of HSV encephalitis. However, there was also signal abnormality involving the right thalam...
Herpes simplex virus (HSV) encephalitis is the fulminant necrotizing viral encephalitis associated with high mortality and morbidity. Here we report a case of HSV encephalitis mimicking cerebral infarction who recovered with intensive intravenous acyclovir therapy.
The importance of immunology in relation to neurological diseases has long been recognized. The first description of immune mediated encephalitis was in 1960’s by Corsellis et al 1 and Brierley et al 2 , who separately documented a form of encephalitis with poor prognosis in adults with tumours. The demonstration of anti-neuronal antibodies associated with this form of encephalitis (Hu, CV2/CRM...
The epidemiology of Japanese Encephalitis and risk to the traveler has changed and continues to evolve. The spread of Japanese Encephalitis virus into new environments, changes in agricultural practice and animal vectors, climate change, peri-urban growth, changes in international travel to Asia, personal risk factors, mosquito vector free transmission, interactions with other flaviviruses and ...
BACKGROUND Encephalitis continues to result in substantial morbidity and mortality worldwide. Advances in diagnosis and management have been limited, in part, by a lack of consensus on case definitions, standardized diagnostic approaches, and priorities for research. METHODS In March 2012, the International Encephalitis Consortium, a committee begun in 2010 with members worldwide, held a meet...
Encephalitis causes high rates of illness and death, yet its epidemiology remains poorly understood. To improve incidence estimates in England and inform priority setting and treatment and prevention strategies, we used hospitalization data to estimate incidence of infectious and noninfectious encephalitis during 2005-2009. Hospitalization data were linked to a dataset of extensively investigat...
background: orang primary health centre (ophc) and balipara primary health centre (bphc) of assam (india) report mosquito borne diseases annually. current study was performed to ascertain the prevalence of known malaria and japanese encephalitis (je) vectors and their possible role in disease transmission. methods: malaria epidemiological data for 2006–2010 and je data for 2008–2013 of assam, i...
in this case we present a previously healthy child with sudden behavioral change and acute confusional state (acs). acs is a neurologic emergency. the clinical manifestations of acs are; confused affect, limited verbal response, disturbance in performing orders, some automatism, stable vital signs and absence of tonic-clonic movements and it has a wide range of differential diagnosis which shou...
backgrund: free-living amoebae belonging to the genus acanthamoeba have an environmental distribution. amoebic keratitis due to these protozoan parasites continue to rise in iran and worldwide. in iran, there are various researches regard-ing both morphological and molecular identification of acanthamoeba spp. in envi-ronmental and clinical samples. however, there is no thorough review about ac...
