Abstract
|
|
|
Herpes zoster is characterized by several groups of vesicles situated unilaterally within the distribution of the cranial or spinal nerve coming from one posterior ganglion. Bilateral involvement and recurrence are rare, and zoster involves two
widely
separated regions at one time are even rare.
We report a case of bilateral herpes zoster. A 5-years-old female patient was presented with painful bilateral grouped vesicles on erythematous on an erythematous base along the dermatome of Lt T2 and Rt T5. Tzanck smear revealed multinucleated
giant
cells, and histopathologic findings were consistent with herpetic infection. She was successfully treated by administration of acyclovir without any significant complications. (Kor J Dermatol 1994 ; 32(6) : 1119~1122)
