Herpes simplex virus infections involving the fingers and hands have been reported primarily in medical and dental personnel. A 10-year-old boy is described who presented with herpes simplex virus infection of his left hand two weeks after resolution of an episode of recurrent herpes labialis. Since herpes simplex infections of the fingers and hands may be confused with a variety of other more common conditions, clinicians should be alert to this possibility when diagnosing vesiculopustular lesions of the hands, particularly in medical and dental personnel and in patients with histories of recurrent herpes simplex infections elsewhere. A need for greater patient awareness of the potential for herpes simplex virus autoinoculation is also stressed.
单纯疱疹病毒感染累及手指和手部的情况主要在医疗和牙科人员中有所报道。本文描述了一名10岁男孩,在复发性唇疱疹发作消退两周后,左手出现单纯疱疹病毒感染。由于手指和手部的单纯疱疹感染可能会与其他多种更常见的病症相混淆,因此临床医生在诊断手部水疱脓疱性病变时应警惕这种可能性,尤其是在医疗和牙科人员以及有其他部位复发性单纯疱疹感染病史的患者中。文中还强调了需要提高患者对单纯疱疹病毒自体接种可能性的认识。
