title: Pandemic (H1N1) 2009 encephalitis in woman, Taiwan.
abstract: We report an unusual case of pandemic (H1N1) 2009-related encephalitis in an immunocompetent woman. Although rare cases of pandemic (H1N1) 2009 associated with encephalitis have been reported previously, in this patient, direct viral invasion of the central nervous system was shown by simultaneous detection of viral RNA and pleocytosis.
