[Neurologic signs and symptoms in viral infections--disease involving meninges, central nervous system or peripheral nerve system].
Knowledge about the roles of virus in the neurological infection has been expanded because of the recent advancement of viral detection techniques such as enzyme immunoassay and polymerase chain reaction: However, detection of neurological signs and symptoms can still indicate a specific virologic diagnosis. In addition, neurological symptoms that are less commonly seen or newly described are reviewed, including opsoclonus myoclonus syndrome, Rasmussen's encephalitis and slow viral infections.
