The results of clinical observations over patients with encephalitides (E) and meningoencephalitides (ME) of measles etiology are presented. In the majority of patients, E and ME development was related to the severe forms of measles. The diseases developed in both the catarrhal period of measles and in the period of pigmentation and were characterized by a severe course. Neurological complications in patients with measles were most frequently presented by the meningoencephalic syndrome and less commonly by ME and E. The pathogenesis of central nervous system impairments associated with measles is discussed.
