Consequences of varicella zoster infection reflect a wide range of minor to serious complications involving the central nervous system. This is a case series with challenging presentations, imaging features and favorable outcome. For example, the cases presented with clinical features that resemble Brown Sequard Syndrome, transverse myelitis manner and multiple sclerosis and cognitive decline. We recommend adequate history taking, clinical examination and use of available investigation. Early treatment is likely to prevent any disabling neurological damage.
水痘带状疱疹感染的后果反映了一系列从轻微到严重的并发症，累及中枢神经系统。这是一组具有挑战性的病例系列，包括临床表现、影像学特征及良好的预后。例如，这些病例呈现出类似布朗-塞卡尔综合征、横贯性脊髓炎、多发性硬化症及认知功能减退的临床特征。我们建议进行充分的病史采集、临床检查并采用现有的检查手段。早期治疗可能预防任何致残性神经损伤。
