Adult-onset encephalitis over two decades in easternmost Finland

CONCLUSIONS: Adult-onset encephalitis was more common and the patients older in easternmost Finland than previously reported in other parts of the country. TBE, HSV-1 and VZV are the most commonly identified specific aetiologies whereas a fifth of the cases are probably caused by autoimmunity. Prognosis depended on aetiology but was very good in the majority of cases.PMID:38417410 | DOI:10.1159/000538020
