  • Title: Herpes zoster presenting as unilateral vasculitis.
    Author: Clark AK, Dhossche J, Korcheva VB, Keller JJ.
    Journal: Dermatol Online J; 2018 Nov 15; 24(11):. PubMed ID: 30695979.
    Abstract:
    Vasculitis can be a primary disorder or a cutaneous manifestation of a viral infection. The present case describes an atypical localized cutaneous varicella-zoster virus infection inducing a small vessel vasculitis in a patient with multisystem sarcoidosis. Additionally, we discuss the differential diagnoses and treatment options. Varicella-Zoster infection occurs more frequently in immunosuppressed populations and can present with uncharacteristic clinical manifestations complicating the diagnosis as in the present case.
