To report a case of multiple delayed recurrence of acute retinal necrosis syndrome occurring in the same eye following initial herpetic encephalitis.
Case report and review of literature.
An otherwise healthy 67-year-old woman experienced three episodes of acute retinal necrosis in the left eye 3 months, 3 years, and 12 years, respectively, following initial herpes simplex-1 encephalitis. This is the first case report of more than one such recurrence, moreover in the same eye, and with such long interval.
This case illustrates that extremely long intervals between initial herpetic encephalitis and acute necrosis syndrome recurrence can occur, thus warranting a long follow-up of these patients.
报告1例初次发生单纯疱疹病毒性脑炎后同一只眼多次出现急性视网膜坏死综合征延迟复发的病例。
病例报告及文献复习。
一名67岁身体健康的女性，在初次发生单纯疱疹病毒1型脑炎后，左眼分别于3个月、3年和12年出现3次急性视网膜坏死发作。这是首例报告的不止一次此类复发的病例，而且是在同一只眼中，且间隔时间如此之长。
该病例表明，初次疱疹病毒性脑炎与急性坏死综合征复发之间可能间隔极长的时间，因此需要对这些患者进行长期随访。
