High-grade glioma mimicking acute viral encephalitis--three case reports.

J H Rees1, R S Howard.   

Abstract

The clinical features of viral encephalitis consist of headache, fever, seizures and encephalopathy. We report three patients with high-grade gliomas presenting with encephalitic illnesses. The diagnosis of brain tumour should always be borne in mind if definite evidence for a viral infection is not obtained.
