Evaluation of Giemsa-stained smears of scrapings from the base of vesicles or ulcers ( Tzanck preparation) for the presence of multinucleated giant cells and/or intracellular inclusions were diagnostic for herpesvirus in 18 of 21 cases (86%) of culturally proved herpesvirus infections. Smears from four patients with varicella-zoster infection also revealed cytologic alterations characteristic of herpesvirus.
对水疱或溃疡底部刮片进行吉姆萨染色涂片检查(Tzanck涂片法),以查找多核巨细胞和/或细胞内包涵体,在21例经培养证实为疱疹病毒感染的病例中,有18例(86%)通过该检查诊断出疱疹病毒。4例水痘-带状疱疹感染患者的涂片也显示出疱疹病毒特有的细胞学改变。
