title: [Clinical characteristics of various neuroviroses in relation to their etiology].
abstract: No clinical, cytochemical nor electroencephalographic standards of behavior, specific for each etiology were found in a series of 67 cases of viral infection of the nervous system; however, the severeness was greater in cases of infectious mononucleosis with encephalic involvement and in cases caused by Coxsackie B5 possibly because these appeared in younger patients. The group with greater percentage of definitive motor and intellectual sequelae was found in cases with infectious mononucleosis and ECHO. Cases due to herpes simplex were not more severe during the acute stage, but followed a course with an important percentage of definitive sequelae. Meningoencephalitides from parotiditis were milder, and only in one case did they show permanent motor sequelae.
