    Abstract:
    Eight weeks after suffering from herpes zoster of the right 5th cranial nerve, an 80-year-old woman with chronic lymphocytic leukaemia developed zoster-like pseudovesicular lesions in the same nerve segment. Histological and immunohistological investigations revealed specific infiltrates of chronic lymphocytic leukaemia. Chemotherapy for the underlying disease was intensified, and the cutaneous infiltrates disappeared quickly. The patient died shortly afterwards due to exacerbation of the lymphoma.
