  • Title: Acute retinal necrosis in primary herpes simplex virus type I infection.
    Author: Mora P, Guex-Crosier Y, Kamberi E, Orsoni JG.
    Journal: Pediatr Infect Dis J; 2009 Feb; 28(2):163-4. PubMed ID: 19106778.
    Abstract:
    Here we report the case of an immunocompetent 8-year-old child who developed acute retinal necrosis concomitant with a primary herpes simplex virus type I infection. Ocular inflammation changed along with the development of a specific antibody titer in the serum. This evidence suggests that the immune response of the host can significantly modulate the clinical aspect of the ocular infection.
