None had underlying disease and all were immunocompetent. Their mean age at diagnosis was 40.98 \u00b1 47.65 months. Of these 252 patients, 144 (57.1%) were diagnosed with meningitis, 84 (33.3%) with febrile seizure not induced by meningitis, and 24 (9.5%) with encephalitis. Of the 9 patients positive for HHV-6, 3 (33.3%) had encephalitis, 3 (33.3%) had meningitis, 1 (11.1%) had complex febrile seizure, and the other 2 patients had fever alone. Outcomes were worse in the seizure group (Fisher exact test, P = .048), especially in patients with status epilepticus (Fisher exact test, P = .012), than in the other groups. Encephalitis patients with and without HHV-6 differed significantly in age (24.0 \u00b1 10.8 vs 63.4 \u00b1 47.7 months, t-test P &lt; .05), with status epilepticus being more frequent in those with HHV-6 (Fisher exact test, P = .010). All 3 encephalitis patients positive for HHV-6 had neurologic sequelae; 2 who had mild sequelae were treated with antiviral agents and intravenous immunoglobulin.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>HHV-6 may not be completely benign in immunocompetent children.
