Epstein-Barr virus meningoencephalitis with a lymphoma-like response in an immunocompetent host.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Epilepsy is a common neurological disorder characterized by recurrent seizures often unresponsive to pharmacological treatment. Brain inflammation is considered a crucial etiopathogenetic mechanism of epilepsy that could be targeted to control seizures. Specific inflammatory mediators overexpressed in human e...
