Thediagnosis of herpes simplex virus infection was madebased on the clinical history and histopathologicfeatures. She was successfully treated withprophylactic valacyclovir, and her herpetic outbreakshave halted.

我们报告了一名48岁患有可变性红斑角皮病的女性，这是一种罕见的角化遗传性疾病，她在皮肤病变内出现了新的、疼痛性水疱。基于临床病史和组织病理学特征做出了单纯疱疹病毒感染的诊断。她接受预防性伐昔洛韦治疗后获得成功，疱疹发作已停止。该病例提醒我们，即使在最罕见的皮肤疾病中，常见的继发性并发症也可能很容易被忽视。
