Varicella Zoster Virus (VZV) causes two distinct clinical entities, varicella that is an acute and generally benign illness in children resulting from primary infection with VZV, and zoster which results from reactivation of latent VZV and usually occurs in adults. Zoster is uncommon before 10 years of age. Occurrence of herpes zoster during varicella infection is exceptional. Here, I report ...
Herpes zoster (Shingles; Zona) is an acute infectious skin disease that is caused by the reactivation of varicella zoster virus (VZV). After the initial infection (chickenpox) or vaccination, the virus remains inactive or latent in the dorsal root ganglia (DRG); when decreasing cell mediated immunity (CMI) occurs, the virus is reactivated from a latent phase to a lytic phase and frequently repl...
Background: To get accustomed with cutaneous manifestations related to AIDS is effective in early diagnosis of this disease. Objective: To evaluate the cutaneous manifestations in HIV seropositive patients. Patients and Methods: A prospective, descriptive and cross-sectional study was performed on HIV-positive male prisoners in Kermanshah central prison and in addiction camp, referred to skin d...
introduction: herpes zoster infection (hzi) is a viral disease with painful skin rashes and blisters in a limited area on one side of the body, often in a strip. osteonecrosis with spontaneous exfoliation of teeth in association with hzi of the mandibular nerve is a rare phenomenon. in this report, such an unusual complication of hzi is presented. case report: the clinical course of a 53-year...
statement of the problem: alveolar bone necrosis induced by herpes zoster infection is considered as a rare manifestation of osteomyelitis and few case reports are presented in the literature. purpose: the aim of this study was to evaluate mandibular osteomyelitis caused by herpes zoster in the immunocompromised patients with histopathologically documented osteomyelitis in the mandible and herp...
This topic will review the pathogenesis, epidemiology, risk factors for, clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment of VZV vasculopathy. The major clinical manifestations and complications of chickenpox and herpes zoster are discussed separately. (See "Epidemiology of varicella-zoster virus infection: Chickenpox" and "Treatment of varicella-zoster virus infection: Chickenpox" and "Vaccination ...
Herpes zoster and the risk of ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke: A systematic review and meta-analysis
BACKGROUND Herpes zoster infection and stroke are highly prevalent in the general population; however, reports have presented inconsistent findings regarding the relationship between herpes zoster infection and stroke. In this meta-analysis, we aimed to clarify this association. MATERIAL AND METHODS The PubMed and Embase databases were searched for studies published from their inception to Ja...
Herpes zoster is caused by reactivation of latent varicella-zoster virus that resides in a dorsal root ganglion. Herpes zoster can develop any time after a primary infection. Because varicella vaccine is a live attenuated virus, herpes zoster can develop in a vaccine recipient. The incidence of herpes zoster among vaccine recipients is about 14 cases per 100,000 person-years. In young children,...
Varicella zoster virus (VZV) causes chickenpox and herpes zoster. Herpes zoster is a common infection in older adults and can lead to potentially debilitating postherpetic neuralgia. This article reviews the diagnosis and management of herpes zoster, including strategies to reduce disease frequency and severity with the herpes zoster vaccine.
Varicella results from a primary infection with the varicella virus while herpes zoster is caused by a reactivation of a latent infection. Dissemination of herpes zoster is uncommon in immunocompetent individuals. Reports of disseminated herpes zoster in children are even less common than in adults. An unusual case of disseminated herpes zoster ophthalmicus in an 8-year old immunocompetent blac...
