    Author: Barrett AP, Katelaris CH, Morris JG, Schifter M.
    Journal: Oral Surg Oral Med Oral Pathol; 1993 Feb; 75(2):173-5. PubMed ID: 8381216.
    Abstract:
    Zoster sine herpete infection that involves the trigeminal nerve is rarely reported. The present case details a case of varicella zoster virus infection of the mandibular division of the left trigeminal nerve without evidence of a vesicular eruption. The diagnosis was established on clinical findings and was supported by the demonstration of an IgG antibody titer of > 1:640 during the acute phase of the disease.
