Abstract
This case underlined the importance of having high suspicion for lobar hemorrhage as a rare but deadly complication of herpes simplex virus encephalitis and shone light upon the added complexity it poses on management on an already deadly disease. Herpes simplex virus (HSV) encephalitis is the most common type of sporadic encephalitis that inflicts high rates of morbidity and mortality. Differentiating a progressing encephalitis syndrome from a lobar hemorrhage as a complication presents a challenge and requires great vigilance and insight on part of the treating physician.
