Herpes Simpleks Ensefalitinde Görüntüleme Bulguları

Abstract

Herpes ensefaliti en sık sporadik ensefalittir. Çocuklarda ve yetişkinlerde hastalık genellikle Herpes simpleks tip 1 virüsü ile ilişkilidir. Herpes ensefaliti primer enfeksiyon sonucu ya da latent virüsün reaktivasyonu sonucu oluşur. Hastalık ciddi mor-bidite ve mortaliteye neden olur. Hızlı tanı ve tedavi çok önemlidir, çünkü asiklovir ile yapılan hızlı müdahale sonucu anlamlı şekilde iyileşme gözlenir. Bu nedenle MR görüntüleme paterninin tanınması gereklidir. Medial temporal lob, inferior frontal loblar ve insula tipik olarak etkilenir. Bu yazı herpes ensefalitinin görüntüleme bulgularına odaklanmıştır.

Imaging Findings In Herpes Simplex Encephalitis

Abstract

Herpes encephalitis is the most common sporadic encephalitis. The disease is usually associated with Herpes simplex virus type 1 in children and adults. Herpes encephalitis can occure as a result of primary infection or as the reactivation of latent virus. Herpes encephalitis causes significant morbidity and mortality. Prompt diagnosis and treatment is very crucial, because early intervention with acyclovir significantly improves the clinic. Therefore, recognition of the MR imaging pattern of herpes encephalitis is essential. The medial temporal lobes, inferior frontal lobes, and insula are typically affected. This review focuses on the imaging findings of herpes encephalitis.
