Herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) is a serious viral infection with a high rate
of mortality. The most commonly seen complications are behavioral changes,
seizures and memory deficits. We report the case of a 37-year-old man with HSE in
the right temporal lobe and a severe midline shift who was treated with
acyclovir. The patient underwent anterior temporal lobe resection. Although HSE
can cause permanent cognitive deficits, in this case, early surgical intervention
minimized any deficit, as determined by detailed neuropsychological examination.
Surgical decompression is indicated as early as possible in severe cases. This
case report emphasizes the effect of surgical decompression for HSE on cognitive
function, which has rarely been mentioned before.
