    Abstract:
    We report a case of herpetic encephalitis in a 2-year-old girl. Diagnosis was made at 1st by clinical symptoms and MRI and confirmed by lumbar puncture. Forty days later, new neurologic symptoms appeared and MRI diagnosed acute disseminated encephalomyelitis. MRI better demonstrates CNS abnormalities in herpetic encephalitis and may play a major role as a 1st step in early diagnosis, in particular for acute disseminated encephalomyelitis.
