The features of a characteristic type of encephalopathy caused by human herpesvirus-6 are presented. All patients have clusters of brief convulsions during the stage of skin eruptions. Sometimes the encephalopathy resulted in hemiplegia or mental retardation. Because the clinical course is similar, we propose a subtype of encephalopathy "human herpesvirus-6 encephalopathy with cluster of convulsions in eruptive stage" for further studies of pathophysiology and treatment.
本文介绍了由人类疱疹病毒6型引起的一种特征性脑病的特点。所有患者在皮疹阶段都有短暂惊厥发作的簇状表现。有时该脑病会导致偏瘫或智力发育迟缓。由于临床病程相似,我们提出一种脑病亚型“爆发期有惊厥簇状发作的人类疱疹病毒6型脑病”,以供进一步研究病理生理学和治疗方法。
