Spinal Arteriovenous Malformation Masquerating Zoster Sine Herpete
Zoster sine herpete (ZSH) is difficult to diagnosis during an acute period due to the absence of the characteristic zosteriform dermatomal rash; therefore, progression to postherpetic neuralgia is more common than typical zoster. In addition, misdiagnosis of other neuropathic pain as ZSH is common in clinical situations. Here, we report a case of spinal arteriovenous malformation that mimics ZS...

متن کاملDetection of Varicella-Zoster Virus DNA in the Iris of a Zoster Sine Herpete Patient
A 55-year-old man presented with unilateral iridocyclitis and elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in his right eye. Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) DNA was detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in the iris of a patient of Zoster Sine Herpete.

متن کاملQuantitation of varicella-zoster virus DNA in patients with Ramsay Hunt syndrome and zoster sine herpete.
Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) reactivation causes facial nerve palsy in Ramsay Hunt syndrome (RHS) and zoster sine herpete (ZSH) with and without zoster rash, respectively. In the present study, we analyzed the VZV DNA copy number in saliva samples from 25 patients with RHS and 31 patients with ZSH using a TaqMan PCR assay to determine differences in the viral load between the two diseases. VZV ...
