Take the number of people who became ill eating lettuce (40) / the total number of people who ate lettuce (200)

A 40 year old woman is brought to the Emergency department 30 minutes after sustaining server chest injuries in a motor vehicle accident. Despite appropriate treatment she dies 1 hour later. She had 25 year history of a well controlled seizure disorder. A photograph of a coronal section of the brain obtained at autopsy is shown. Which of the following is the most like diagnosis?

Glioblastoma Multiforme - seizure hx started too young, GBM arises in adults
Herpes simplex encephalitis - no hx of hypersexuality nor behavioral abnormalities
Mesial temporal sclerosis - didnt know what it was so I skipped it
Vascular malformation (I put this one and I think I got it right b/c I don't see it on the feedback)

Not exactly sure why its right though.
