Infection-induced acute encephalopathy (IIAE) is a severe neurologic complication of an infection that usually occurs in children. It is characterized by a high-grade fever, often leading to coma, multiple-organ failure, brain edema, and high morbidity and mortality. The infections are usually viral, such as influenza, parainfluenza, and herpes simplex virus. It is possible that genetic factors play an important role in the aetiology of IIAE. For example, herpes simplex encephalitis (HSE) has been linked to defects in type I interferon production downstream of Toll-like receptor (TLR)3.
