Conclusion:
In conclusion, herpes simplex encephalitis presents as a potentially
lethal disease if it was not for acyclovir therapy. Even still deceased
burden remains high. Lobar hemorrhage as a complication further
compounds the complexity of management and warrants higher level of care
and demands vigilance in part of the management team to detect any
neurological deterioration which at times may masquerade just as a
progressing encephalitis syndrome.
