Almost all forms of encephalitis may have serious sequelae in infants and young children. The younger the patient, the greater is the risk of sequelae. Two types of encephalitis are considered: infectious and para-infectious. Clues to etiologic diagnosis are presented. Although specific therapy for the majority of etiologic entities is not available, a

The theory of encephalization is developed from elementary dimensional requirements for the construction of a brain of given size. The basic assumption in the theory is that most of the brain in vertebrates is constructed as a series of mappings repeated at various levels.

Rasmussen encephalitis (RE) is a rare, inflammatory, and possibly immuno-mediated disease that typically affects one hemisphere. The two cardinal symptoms are progressive neurological deficits and intractable seizures, often in the form of epilepsia partialis continua and recurring epileptic status.

Viral encephalitis represents an important source of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Numerous viruses possess neurovirulence, producing encephalitic disorders that usually consist of fever, headache, vomiting, altered consciousness, focal or generalized seizures, and motor dysfunction.

Varicella or chickenpox is a common, generally benign contagious disease caused by the varicella-zoster virus. The high degree of communicability of chickenpox during early childhood (generally 2-8 years of age) can be appreciated by the presence of protective antibodies in 85-90% of children. Although considered to be a mild disease, reported cases of

Abstract Autoimmune encephalitis (AE) is an increasingly recognized, potentially life-threatening disorder that poses a diagnostic challenge in the intensive care setting because of its variable clinical presentation. Various epidemiologic studies show that AE has incidence and prevalence rates similar to those of infectious encephalitis.
