摘要
Herpes simplex virus encephalitis tends to localize to the temporal and orbitofrontal lobes, giving characteristic clinical and pathological findings. Since the virus remains latent in the trigeminal ganglia, we postulate that this localization may be explained by reactivated virus spreading along the fifth nerve fibers, which innervate basal meninges of the anterior and middle fossae.
