| pubmed:abstractText |
Acute encephalitis due to Epstein-Barr virus is described. The initial diagnosis was based on clinical features and a positive Monospot test. Early treatment with intravenous acyclovir was given; steroids were not used. The patient made a rapid and complete recovery from a comatose state. The effectiveness of acyclovir in this condition remains unproven but early treatment is recommended in severely ill patients whose prognosis is uncertain.
