Diseases of the nervous system (neurology)

Encephalitis: treatment

Treatment of encephalitis includes pathogenetic, etiotropic, symptomatic therapy, as well as restorative measures.

Subacute sclerosing leukoencephalitis: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

The subacute sclerosing leukoencephalitis group includes peculiar forms of chronic and subacute encephalitis with a progressive severe course (encephalitis with Dawson inclusions, subacute sclerosing leukoencephalitis of Van Bogart, nodular panencephalitis of Pette-Dering).

Post-vaccinal encephalitis: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Post-vaccinal encephalitis can develop after the introduction of DTP and ADP vaccines, with anti-rabies vaccinations, most often after measles vaccine. At the heart of postvaccinal encephalitis are autoimmune mechanisms.

Encephalitis in rubella

Rubella is an acute viral disease that occurs with a short-term fever, spotted or spotted-papular rash, and an increase in the cervical lymph nodes.

Encephalitis with chickenpox: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Encephalitis in chicken pox is a serious infectious-allergic disease. Encephalitis in chicken pox develops on the 3rd-7th day after the appearance of rashes. Rarely encephalitis occurs in later periods or in the pre-eclamps period. There are hyperthermia, coma, convulsions, meningeal symptoms, pyramidal and extrapyramidal disorders.

Measles encephalitis: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Korevoy encephalitis is one of the most serious complications of measles. By its nature refers to infectious-allergic encephalitis.

Influenza encephalitis

Influenza encephalitis causes influenza viruses A1, A2, A3, B. Occurs as a complication of the flu. Pathogenetic mechanisms for influenza infection are neurotoxicosis and discirculatory phenomena in the brain.

Epidemic lethargic encephalitis Economome (encephalitis A): causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

The epidemic lethargic encephalitis of Ekonomo (encephalitis A) was first recorded in 1915 in the troops near Verdun and was described in 1917 by the Viennese neurologist Ekonomo. The disease in those years was in the form of epidemics that swept across many countries of the world. In subsequent years, all cases of the disease remained sporadic.

Encephalitis caused by the herpes simplex virus: causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Encephalitis caused by the herpes simplex virus begins acutely, with the rise in body temperature. Meningeal symptoms appear quickly, and general epileptic seizures often occur. Focal symptoms are manifested by central mono- and hemiparesis, hyperkinesis.

St. Louis encephalitis (American): causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment

Encephalitis St. Louis (American) is distributed in various parts of the United States. The causative agent of the disease is arbovirus (a filtering neurotropic virus) transmitted by blood-sucking mosquitoes. The disease occurs in late summer in the form of small epidemics.
