    Abstract:
    Motor lesions following herpes zoster are quite common. Hemiparesis, paraparesis, pareses of the facial and other cranial nerves as well as segmental pareses can be observed. We report on a patient suffering from zoster ophthalmicus complicated by paresis of the third cranial nerve. As a cause, a partial brain stem-encephalitis was diagnosed. The patient recovered after antiviral treatment (Aciclovir, Inosiplex).
