  • Title: [Cephalic zoster with involvement of the 5th, 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th cranial nerves].
    Author: Cicala S, Di Ciommo V, Massini R.
    Journal: Minerva Med; 1977 Dec 29; 68(63):4253-6. PubMed ID: 202894.
    Abstract:
    A case of cephalic zoster with involvement of the 5th, 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th left cranial nerves is described. The anatomopathological findings are surveyed. These show that lesions are often found in several areas of the nervous system. The pathogenesis of these forms is examined, with particular reference to the mechanism of involvement of several cranial nerves. It is felt that this is primarily due to reactivation of the virus in several ganglia.
