Rasmussen's encephalitis (RE) is characterized by focal seizures, often associated with epilepsia partialis continua, progressive neurological deterioration, hemispheric atrophy, and inflammatory histopathology. Surgical exclusion of the affected hemisphere is the only treatment that halts progression of the disease.

Treatment of Rasmussen's syndrome with ganciclovir
Neurology, 1996Since cytomegalovirus (CMV) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of Rasmussen's syndrome, we treated four patients with ganciclovir, a potent anti-CMV drug. A 7-year-old girl with seizures escalating to 60/day over 3 months despite triple antiepileptic drug therapy became seizure-free 5 days after initiation of treatment with no recurrence at 1.5 ...

Rasmussen’s syndrome is a childhood developing syndrome, usually characterized by refractory focal motor seizures (epilepsia partialis continua). Most cases originate between the age of 1 and 10 years, mean age about 5 years. Symptoms are attributed to chronic pathogen-free inflammation of both gray and white matter.

Double pathology in Rasmussen's syndrome
Neurology, 1998The syndrome of chronic encephalitis with epilepsy (Rasmussen's syndrome) typically occurs in children and is characterized by the development of intractable focal seizures, progressive hemiparesis and intellectual deterioration. The etiology is unknown, and the pathological abnormalities vary from those of active disease, with numerous microglial ...

Rasmussen Syndrome of Chronic Focal Encephalitis
European Journal of Paediatric Neurology, 2002Rasmussen syndrome of chronic focal encephalitis is a relatively rare disease, which presents with epilepsia partialis continua and hemiparesis in childhood. Though first described in the 1950s it still remains somewhat of an enigma. The immunological process involved in its pathogenesis is better understood now but the exact relationship to viral ...

Authors report about a boy with Rasmussen syndrome. This is a chronic localised encephalitis with focal epileptic seizures causing progressive neurologic deficits and mental impairment. The etiology and the clinical features of the syndrome are discussed, and the diagnostic role of the new imaging modalities is emphasized.
