Abstract
|
|
|
|
Recurrent herpes zoster is rare and may be associated with various immunocompromised states. A 54-year-old woman who had previously been diagnosed with multiple myeloma, presented with severely-painful, grouped vesicles on the upper part of her right trunk area (T5-T7 dermatomes). Seven months before, she had been treated for herpes zoster on the left side of the lower trunk area (T10 dermatome). We report a case of recurrent herpes zoster which occurred bilaterally in a patient with multiple myeloma. The patient was treated successfully with famciclovir.
