## Abstract Herpes simplex virus (HSV) DNA in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of children with herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) was quantified and typed using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay. During the acute phase, HSVβDNA was detected in the CSF of 13 patients with HSE, including 5 neona

## Abstract The objectives of this study were to evaluate the reliability of herpes simplex virus (HSV) PCR testing in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) for the detection of herpes simplex encephalitis. This was done by examining retrospectively the clinical followβup of a large group of patients tested ro
In a two-centre study, the routine DNA preparation and PCR amplification protocols were compared for herpes simplex virus (HSV) detection in cerebrospinal fluids (CSFs) of 43 patients with suspected herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE). The combined clinical, radiological and laboratory results indicat
## Abstract A quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assay was evaluated retrospectively on 92 cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) samples from 29 patients with herpes simplex virus (HSV) encephalitis with the aim to study if the concentration of HSV genomes can be used as a prognostic marker and for m
## Abstract Herpes simplex virus (HSV) infection of the eye can induce epithelial and stromal keratitis and may also lead to postoperative endothelial failure in keratoplasty. Clinical symptoms and/or virus culture of corneal scrapings most frequently provide the basis for diagnosis of ocular HSV i
