Herpes Zoster Oftalmikus

Herpes zoster (HZ) acil servisin sık tanılarındandır. Ancak herpes zoster oftalmikus (HZO) tipik olarak V1, V2 dermatomları boyunca döküntü sonrası prodromal belirtilerle ortaya çıkan zonanın seyrek rastlanan bir formudur. Klasik olarak, HZO yaklaşık bir hafta ateş, miyalji ve kırıklık gibi grip benzeri semptomlar ile başlar. Bu vakada, sağ alın bölgesinde döküntü ve başağrısı şikayeti ile başvuran hastayı tanımladık. HZO, trigeminal sinirin oftalmik dalının dağılımındaki varisella-zoster virüsünün (VZV) ciddi reaktivasyonudur. Herpes zoster oftalmikusun ayırıcı tanısı, başlangıcı ve morbitidesinden dolayı acil hekimleri için önemlidir.

Herpes Zoster Ophthalmicus

Herpes zoster (HZ) is a common diagnosis in the emergency department, but herpes zoster ophthalmicus (HZO) is a rare form of shingles that typically presents with prodromal symptoms followed by a rash distributed along the V1-V2 dermatomes. Classically, HZO begins with flu-like symptoms including fever, myalgia and malaise for approximately one week. In the current case, we describe a woman who presented to our medical center with a headache and rash on the right forehead. HZO is a potentially serious reactivation of varicella-zoster virus (VZV) in the distribution of the ophthalmic division of the trigeminal nerve. The differential diagnosis of HZO is an important task for emergency physicians because of its rapid onset and severity
