Real-time polymerase chain reaction in acute retinal necrosis following encephalitis

Real-time polymerase chain reaction in acute retinal necrosis following encephalitis

Acute retinal necrosis (ARN) following herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) in an immunocompetent patient is a rare condition. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) has made it possible to identify and quantify viral genome. We report a case of ARN following HSE managed with the help...
