Herpes simplex infection (HSV) is a common infectious disease, which the main clinical manifestations are mucocutaneous infection. Extragenital infections are reported in both type 1 and type 2 of herpes simplex virus. We report a case of a 33-year-old female with recurrent extragenital HSV type 2 infection on the right medial wrist. The patient had history of the previous infection site locating on the right posterior deltoid however both of two sites are the same dermatomal distribution. This report demonstrates the recurrent herpes simplex infection can develop in another area of the dermatomal distribution.
单纯疱疹感染(HSV)是一种常见的传染病,其主要临床表现为黏膜皮肤感染。1型和2型单纯疱疹病毒均有生殖器外感染的报道。我们报告一例33岁女性,右侧腕内侧复发性生殖器外2型HSV感染。该患者既往感染部位位于右三角肌后部,然而这两个部位属于同一皮节分布。本报告表明复发性单纯疱疹感染可发生在皮节分布的另一区域。
