Abstract

Epstein-Barr Virus also known as Human herpesvirus 4 usually causes infectious mononucleosis which is a benign disease with mild or no symptoms. Death due to Epstein-Barr Virus infections is extremely rare. We present a case of fulminant Epstein-Barr Virus encephalitis who developed multiorgan dysfunction on second day and succumbed within 52 h of symptom onset.
