Herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) is a rare disease, although it is the most common form of sporadic encephalitis worldwide. Recently, studies have provided important new insight into the genetic and immunological basis of HSE. However, even in the presence of antiviral treatment, mortality and morbidity remain relatively high. Therefore, precise and early diagnosis together with basic and clinical studies to gain better insight into the pathogenesis of HSE is a prerequisite for the development of improved prophylaxis and treatment of this severe disease.
单纯疱疹病毒性脑炎（HSE）是一种罕见疾病，尽管它是全球散发性脑炎最常见的形式。最近，研究为HSE的遗传和免疫基础提供了重要的新见解。然而，即使进行抗病毒治疗，死亡率和发病率仍然相对较高。因此，精确早期诊断以及开展基础和临床研究以更好地了解HSE的发病机制，是开发针对这种严重疾病的改进预防和治疗方法的先决条件。
