拉斯穆森脑炎（RE）是一种罕见的神经系统疾病的炎性病因，其特征是脑炎，顽固性癫痫发作，轻偏瘫，可变运动缺陷和痴呆。对于既往有卒中样发作史的癫痫持续状态患者，临床鉴别诊断中通常不考虑该因素。怀疑主要发生在儿童中，这种疾病在儿童中更为常见。在这里，我们报告一例成年男子提出了一个共同的症状癫痫引起的拉斯穆森脑炎。
Rasmussen's encephalitis (RE) is a rare neurological disorder of inflammatory aetiology characterised by encephalitis, intractable seizures, hemiparesis, variable motor deficits, and dementia. It is not commonly considered in the clinical differential diagnosis of a patient with a past history of a stroke-like episode presenting with status epilepticus. It is suspected mainly in children in whom the disease is more common. Here we report a case of an adult man presenting with a common symptom of seizure caused by Rasmussen's encephalitis.
