  • Title: Meningoencephalitis caused by varicella-zoster virus reactivation in a child with dominant partial interferon-gamma receptor-1 deficiency.
    Author: Roesler J, Hedrich C, Laass MW, Heyne K, Rösen-Wolff A.
    Journal: Pediatr Infect Dis J; 2011 Mar; 30(3):265-6. PubMed ID: 20842068.
    Abstract:
    We describe a previously symptom-free 13-year-old boy with dominant partial interferon-γ receptor-1 deficiency and unusual varicella-zoster virus reactivation. This case supports the unsettled notion that some interferon-γ R-deficient patients are at enhanced risk for viral disease.
