We present a case of serologically proved West Nile encephalitis.

This patient had a normal MRI on admission.

Given that the patient’s clinical picture had worsened during her admission, a repeat MRI was performed, which demonstrated diffuse disease in the deep white matter of the brain.

This is a case of West Nice encephalitis presenting as a disease of deep white matter that developed over a two-week span.
