(18) The selective destruction of temporal and frontal lobe structures by herpes simplex encephalitis has been explained as a consequence of the proximity of those regions to the point of entry of the virus in the encephalon, through olfactory pathways or meningeal branches of the trigeminal nerves.
(19) Microscopical examination of the encephalon showed the presence of microglial nodules with aspects of neurophagia, suggestive of a polioencephalitis.

Encephalos

(4) The cytological characteristics of these catecholamine-containing cells, plus the fact that they border directly on the cerebrospinal fluid, suggest that they may be more closely related to peripheral chromaffin cells than to the other cell types intrinsic to the central nervous system, and the name "encephalo-chromaffin cells" is therefore proposed for them.
