title: [A case of herpes simplex encephalitis requiring surgical management].
abstract: The authors report about surgical treatment of herpes simplex encephalitis, although conservative management of this disease is the method of choice in the first place. They draw a lesson from this case that certain cases of large space occupying lesions of infectious origin leading to brain stem compression may require surgical management, even if they customary treatment is conservative.
