Herpes zoster (HZ) is an infection characterized by the appearance of unilateral painful vesicular lesions on the skin and mucous membranes. Facial paralysis is one of the complications of HZ. The diagnosis of HZ can be easily missed when there is no lesion on the skin. We present a rare case with isolated oral mucosal lesions accompanied by facial palsy.
带状疱疹(HZ)是一种以皮肤和黏膜出现单侧疼痛性水疱性损害为特征的感染性疾病。面神经麻痹是HZ的并发症之一。当皮肤无损害时,HZ的诊断很容易被漏诊。我们报告1例罕见的以孤立性口腔黏膜损害伴面神经麻痹为表现的病例。
