| encephalitis periaxialis | Rare demyelinating disease characterised by massive destruction of the myelin in the cerebral hemispheres, cavity formation, and glial scarring. Clinical symptoms include bilateral spasticity, cortical blindness, and progressive dementia. Encephalitis periaxialis diffusa (= schilder's disease) should be reserved for instances of myelinoclastic diffuse sclerosis that correspond to the case described by schilder in 1912. Schilder's disease should not be confused with addison-schilder disease (= adrenoleukodystrophy). (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| encephalitis periaxialis concentrica | Encephalitis that is clinically similar to adrenoleukodystrophy, but pathologically characterised by concentric globes or circles of demyelination of cerebral white matter separated by normal tissue. Synonym: Balo's disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| encephalitis periaxialis diffusa | Term used to describe at least two separate disorders described by Schilder: 1) Diffuse sclerosis or encephalitis periaxialis diffusa; a nonfamilial disorder affecting primarily children and young adults and characterised by progressive dementia, visual disturbances, deafness, pseudobulbar palsy, and hemiplegia or quadriplegia. Most patients die within a few years of onset; pathologically, there is a large, asymmetrical area of myelin destruction, sometimes involving an entire cerebral hemisphere, and typically with extension across the corpus callosum. 2) The leukodystrophies. Synonym: encephalitis periaxialis diffusa, Flatau-Schilder disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| encephalitis pyogenica | Encephalitis of bacterial aetiology. Synonym: encephalitis pyogenica, purulent encephalitis, suppurative encephalitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| encephalitis subcorticalis chronica | One of the causes of multiinfarct dementia, in which there are many infarcts and lacunes in the white matter, with relative sparing of the cortex and basal ganglia. Synonym: Binswanger's encephalopathy, encephalitis subcorticalis chronica, subcortical arteriosclerotic encephalopathy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| encephalitis virus | Any one of a variety of virus's that cause encephalitis. (05 Mar 2000) |
| encephalitis virus, eastern equine | A species of alphavirus causing encephalomyelitis in equidae and humans. The virus ranges along the atlantic seaboard of the united states and canada and as far south as the caribbean, mexico, and parts of central and south america. Infections in horses show a mortality of up to 90 percent and in humans as high as 80 percent in epidemics. (12 Dec 1998) |
| encephalitis virus, japanese | A species of flavivirus, one of the japanese encephalitis virus group (encephalitis viruses, japanese), which is the aetiological agent of japanese encephalitis found in asia, southeast asia, and the indian subcontinent. (12 Dec 1998) |
| encephalitis virus, murray valley | A species of flavivirus, one of the japanese encephalitis virus group (encephalitis viruses, japanese), found in Australia and new guinea. It causes a fulminating viraemia resembling japanese encephalitis. (12 Dec 1998) |
| encephalitis virus, st. louis | A species of flavivirus, one of the japanese encephalitis virus group (encephalitis viruses, japanese), which is the aetiologic agent of st. Louis encephalitis in the united states, the caribbean, and central and south america. (12 Dec 1998) |
| encephalitis virus, venezuelan equine | A species of alphavirus that is the aetiologic agent of equine encephalomyelitis in humans and equines. It is seen most commonly in parts of central and south america. (12 Dec 1998) |
| encephalitis virus, western equine | A species of alphavirus that is the aetiologic agent of equine encephalomyelitis in humans and equines in the united states, southern canada, and parts of south america. (12 Dec 1998) |
| encephalitis viruses | A collection of single-stranded RNA viruses scattered across the bunyaviridae, flaviviridae, and togaviridae families whose common property is the ability to induce encephalitic conditions in infected hosts. (12 Dec 1998) |
| encephalitis viruses, japanese | A subgroup of the genus flavivirus which comprises a number of viral species that are the aetiologic agents of human encephalitis in many different geographical regions. These include japanese encephalitis virus (encephalitis virus, japanese), st. Louis encephalitis virus (encephalitis virus, st. Louis), kunjin virus, murray valley encephalitis virus (encephalitis virus, murray valley), and west nile virus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| encephalitis viruses, tick-borne | A subgroup of the genus flavivirus that causes encephalitis and haemorrhagic fevers and is found in eastern and western europe and the former soviet union. It is transmitted by tick vectors and there is an associated milk-borne transmission from viraemic cattle, goats, and sheep. (12 Dec 1998) |
