TI  - Successful treatment of human herpesvirus 6 encephalomyelitis in immunocompetent 
      patient.
PG  - 729-31
AB  - We report a case of human herpesvirus 6 (HHV-6) encephalomyelitis in an 
      immunocompetent patient, which was confirmed by viral amplification from 
      cerebrospinal fluid. Cidofovir was used, followed by ganciclovir, because of an 
      adverse effect to probenecid. The patient recovered. HHV-6 should be recognized 
      as one of the causes of encephalomyelitis.
