The diagnosis of herpes simplex encephalitis is readily considered in patients with focal findings on neurologic and radiologic examinations. In the two patients we have described, the diagnosis was delayed because clinical findings were attributed to other medical conditions, and radiologic studies were nondiagnostic. A high index of suspicion and repeated neuroradiologic tests are recommended in patients with unexplained encephalitis.
对于在神经学和放射学检查中有局灶性表现的患者，单纯疱疹性脑炎的诊断很容易被考虑。在我们描述的两名患者中，诊断被延迟了，因为临床发现被归因于其他疾病，且放射学检查未能确诊。对于患有不明原因脑炎的患者，建议保持高度怀疑并反复进行神经放射学检查。
