[On the problem of pathomorphosis of modern tick-borne encephalitis in Ural].
Pathology study of 32 patients who died of tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) in the Ural Region in 1990s revealed differences with this infection registered in 1940-1950s. Pathological changes in the central nervous system by their severity and location are like those observed in the Far East TBE. Apart from grave alterative changes in the nerve cells of motor nuclei of the spinal cord and brain, three types of pathological changes are observed: productive inflammation, exudative inflammation without pronounced inflammatory reaction. Differences in the organism reactions to the infectious process are explained by differences in the virus virulence and organism immunological status.
