For example,
herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) has a mortality rate of up to 30 per cent even with specific anti-viral treatment, and 70-80 per cent without the treatment.
In our case, we believed that the cause of the pseudotumour cerebri was the use of isotretinoin, and the pseudotumour cerebri might have promoted the development of
herpes simplex encephalitis.
Herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE), Pick's disease, Alzheimer's disease, cerebrovascular disease, head trauma, anoxic-ischemic encephalopathy, epilepsy, juvenile neuronal lipofuscinosis, Huntington's disease, acute intermittent porphyria, tuberculous meningitis, toxoplasmosis, and shigellosis are counted as the causes of KBS (4,5).

Introduction: The objective of this study was to determine the incidence of
herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE), known as the most common, potentially mortal, and treatable cause of sporadic encephalitis, in a sample Turkish population.

Noncontrast CT of the brain demonstrated interval development of acute hemorrhage within medial right temporal lobe, a rare complication of
herpes simplex encephalitis. Computed tomography angiography (CTA) done at the same time was negative for any underlying vascular lesion (Figure 3).
Herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) remains a serious cause of morbidity and mortality despite advances in antiviral treatment [2].
It is reported that
herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) plays a vital role in triggering the synthesis of anti-NMDAR antibodies [3].
