  • Title: Recurrent male herpes genitalis with two different strains of herpes simplex virus type 2.
    Author: Yoshida M, Tezuka T.
    Journal: J Dermatol; 1990 Apr; 17(4):252-4. PubMed ID: 2164052.
    Abstract:
    A case of a 50-year-old man with recurrent herpes genitalis with two different isolated strains of herpes simplex virus (HSV) type 2 is reported. Morphologically, two types of cytopathic effects (CPE) induced by viruses were observed in the Vero cell cultures, one being a syncytial giant cell formation and the other a rounded cell formation without cell adhesion resembling the CPE induced by ordinary HSV type 2. In this case, it is clinically interesting that the patient complained of persistent pain on the glans and urethra without recurrence of herpetic lesions even after the involution of enanthema. The correlation between the persistent pain and neurovirulence of the two different HSV strains is discussed.
