Herpes Simplex Virus Encephalitis after Recovery from Coronavirus Disease 2019 : A Rare Case Report
An 85-year-old woman was diagnosed with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The patient was treated with dexamethasone, and the infection was cured. She later developed a low-grade fever and fell unconscious. Positivity for herpes simplex virus deoxyribonucleic acid polymerase chain reaction (HSV-DNA PCR) was detected in the cerebrospinal fluid, so she was diagnosed with HSV encephalitis. The patient was treated with antiviral drugs and recovered from the HSV encephalitis. This case suggests that, in patients with COVID-19 and disorders of consciousness, the possibility of HSV encephalitis should be considered along with COVID-19 encephalitis.
