[Presentation of a case of suspected herpes encephalitis with unusual clinial aspects].
The authors describe, in a patient suffering from IDDM, a case of suspected EHS the beginning of which was concealed by serious ketoacidosis. The clinical suspicion, strengthened by the tests TC and RMN, was not confirmed by CSF analysis. In spite of the severity of the documented lesion and neurological findings at the onset and the outcome has turned out favourably.
