  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

Observations were made on 19 cases of atypical encephalitis. Eleven were dead, and of these ten underwent autopsy. Characteristics of the clinical course were rapid rise in body temperature, and severe disturbance of consciousness with generalized or localized seizures. Generally speaking, neurologi-cal signs and symptoms were extremely slight.

In regard to the disturbance of consciousness the cases were classified into the following three groups; i) camatous type, ii) stuporous type, and iii) delirious type.

On the basis of the neuropathological findings, the cases of atypical encephalitis were divided as follows; i) acute necrotizing encephalitis, ii) acute haemorrhagic encephalitis, iii) acute encephalitis of lymphocytic type, and iv) acute encephalitis of pe-rivenous type.

From the clinical point of view, through exami-nation not only of the nervous system but also of the entire body is a prerequisite, and when ence-phalitis is suspected, virus isolation or serological tests using suitable sample material should be made immediately. And when death occurs, detailed patho-logical consideration not only on the nervous system but also on the entire body is required.
