Özet
Herpes simpleks ensefaliti, akut bilinç değişikliği, ateş veya nöbetle başvurabilen ve özellikle temporal-limbik sistemi tutan zaman kritik bir enfeksiyondur. Kontrastsız BT temporal lobdaki hemorajik değişikliği gösterebilir; HSE tanısında beyin MR’ı BT’den daha duyarlı ve özgül görüntüleme yöntemidir. Görüntülemede temporal ve insular tutulum ile ödem saptanır; ilerleyen olgularda hemoraji izlenebilir ve MR tanıda tercih edilir. Normal BT'yi dışlayıcı kabul etmek veya limbik dağılımı tanımamak tanı değerlendirmesinde tehlikeli gecikmeye neden olabilir.
Faz ve pencere
- Kontrastsız tanısal
- İlk BT normal olabilir; HSE’de kontrastsız BT temporal lobda hemorajik dönüşüm gösterebilir. MR (T2/FLAIR ve difüzyon) tanısal değerlendirmede daha duyarlıdır.
Önerilen pencereler G genişlik, M merkez; değerler Hounsfield birimi (HU)
- BeyinG 80 / M +40
- İnmeG 40 / M +40
BT bulguları
- HSE’de temporal lob, insula ve hipokampusta şişme ve T2 sinyal artışı görülebilir.
- İnsular tutulum — temporal lob lezyonuyla birlikte insulada da ödem ve sinyal değişikliği izlenir.
- HSE’de MR’da temporal lobda T2 sinyal artışı ve difüzyon kısıtlaması görülebilir; kontrastsız BT’de hemorajik dönüşüm saptanabilir.
- Kitle etkisi — şiddetli ödem veya hemoraji sonucu orta hatta kayma ve herniasyon riski izlenebilir.
- Damar alanını aşan yayılım — medial temporal ve insular tutulum tek bir MCA dal alanına sınırlı kalmayabilir.
- Temporal lob tutulumunda hemorajik değişiklikler ve nekroz görülebilir; peteşiyal kortikal kanamalar yaygın, frank hematom ise nadirdir.
- Erken normal görünüm — özellikle başlangıç döneminde kontrastsız BT'de belirgin parankim değişikliği olmayabilir.
- HSE’de temporal lob, insula ve hipokampus tutulabilir; orbitofrontal tutulum da bildirilmiştir.
Normalde
Karşılaştırma — lezyonun asimetrisi, sinyal yoğunluğundaki artış ve anatomik dağılımın tipik olmaması dikkat çekicidir. Değerlendirme — temporal ve insular bölgede beklenmeyen asimetri, ödem ve sinyal değişikliği ayırıcı tanı açısından önemlidir.
Normal BT ile kıyasla
Aynı bölgenin, kaynak veri setinde patoloji içermediği belirtilen bir BT incelemesini kesit kesit kaydırın; organ sınırlarını açarak anatomiyi hasta görüntüsüyle karşılaştırın. Küçük rastlantısal bulgular tümüyle dışlanmamıştır.
Kaynak: TotalSegmentator v2.01 veri seti (Wasserthal ve ark., Radiology: Artificial Intelligence 2023), CC BY 4.0, vaka s0103; organ sınırları veri setinin otomatik segmentasyonundan, birleştirilerek sadeleştirildi. Görüntüler 2,5 mm kesit aralığına yeniden örneklendi.
Ayırıcı tanı
- Orta serebral arter infarktı
- kortikal-subkortikal hipodansite damar alanına uyar; HSV lezyonu limbik yapıları tutup arter sınırlarını aşabilir.
- Otoimmün limbik ensefalit
- mezial temporal T2/FLAIR hiperintensitesi HSV ensefalitine özgü değildir; otoimmün ensefalit de bu bulgunun ayırıcı tanısında yer alır.
- Nöbet sonrası değişimler
- hipokampus, pulvinar ve kortekste ödem ve sinyal değişikliği yapabilir; geri dönücüdür.
- Gliom/Astrocytoma
- herpetik meningoensefalit taklidi yapabilir; biyopsi ve ileri görüntüleme gerekebilir.
- Serebral apse
- merkezinde düşük atenüasyon ve çevresel ödem bulunabilir; halka biçimli kontrastlanma ve klinik enfeksiyon odağı ayırıcıdır.
Tuzaklar
- Başlangıç BT'sinin doğal olması HSV ensefalitini elemez; BT görünür ödemi göstermediğinde bile klinik şüphe sürüyorsa ileri değerlendirme gerekir.
- Temporal hipodansiteyi doğrudan infarkt saymayın; lezyonun insula ve hipokampusa uzanımını, damar alanı sınırlarını geçip geçmediğini inceleyin.
- Hemoraji tespiti — şüpheli durumlarda GRE/SWI gibi hassas sekanslar veya seri BT faydalı olabilir.
- Bazal ganglion korunması HSV için tek başına kanıt değildir; periiktal ve otoimmün limbik hastalık benzer temporal görünüm oluşturabilir.
Kendini dene
Ateş ve konfüzyonla başvuran hastada BT'de asimetrik medial temporal ve insular hipodansite, lokal sulkus basısı var. En olası tanı nedir?
Cevabı göster
HSV ensefaliti. Asimetrik limbik-temporal ve insular dağılım akut klinik bağlamda HSV ensefalitini destekler. İnfarkt genellikle arter alanına uyar; otoimmün ensefalit görüntüde benzer olabilir ama etken BT ile belirlenemez; gliom çoğunlukla daha yavaş gelişen kitle/infiltrasyon örüntüsü verir.
Ensefalopati ve nöbeti olan hastanın ilk kontrastsız BT'sinde belirgin anormallik yok. Bu bulgu nasıl yorumlanmalıdır?
Cevabı göster
Erken HSV dışlanmaz. Erken HSV ensefalitinde BT doğal görünebilir; normal sonuç hastalığı dışlamaz. Bu görünüm HSV'yi kesinleştirmez, infarkt lehine özgül değildir ve klinik ensefaliti dışlamaz.
