We report a 4-year-old child who developed hemiplegia 6 months after varicella-zoster virus (VZV) infection. Cerebral angiography showed complete occlusion of the right middle cerebral artery with basal moyamoya vessels. Elevation of anti-VZV antibody in the cerebrospinal fluid indicated central nervous system involvement. The association between VZV cerebral angitis and unilateral occlusion of right middle cerebral artery is discussed.
我们报告一名4岁儿童,在感染水痘-带状疱疹病毒(VZV)6个月后出现偏瘫。脑血管造影显示右侧大脑中动脉完全闭塞,伴有基底烟雾状血管。脑脊液中抗VZV抗体升高表明中枢神经系统受累。本文讨论了VZV脑动脉炎与右侧大脑中动脉单侧闭塞之间的关联。
