    Author: Shinjoh M, Bamba M, Jozaki K, Takahashi E, Koinuma G, Sugaya N.
    Journal: Clin Infect Dis; 2000 Aug; 31(2):611-3. PubMed ID: 10987732.
    Abstract:
    Two cases of acute encephalopathy in young children clearly showed evidence of influenza A virus infection and bilateral thalamic lesions. Influenza-associated encephalopathy with bilateral thalamic lesions has mostly been reported in Japan; it differs from Reye's syndrome in several respects. Other factors in addition to influenza virus infection may have contributed to the etiology of encephalopathy in our case patients.
