<<Because I thought that I heard somewhere, that HSV can spontaneously? travel along the nervous system to the brain >> WHG: In the case I mentioned he had a herpetic eruption on his upper lip and perinasal area. I don't know it the virus traveled through the olfatory tracts or if it possible spread through the ethmoidal and sphenoidal sinuses into the cranial cavity. I think the last one sounds plausible since it is a relatively short route. I remember years ago (before tamoxifen)(actually it was in the fiftees) in some cases of metastatic breast cancer besides oophorectomies and adrenalectomies some people were doing trans-sphenoidal hypophysectomies,and in some reports from Europe they did that on a dental chair and as an outpatient procedure. Well, enough for reminiscences of the old times, since I am afraid we may be again transgressing the rules of this thread. Regards and good luck. Bernard
