Four cases of herpes zoster-induced bullous erythema multiforme (EM) are reported. Three patients presented with widespread skin lesions 10 to 14 days after an episode of thoracic herpes zoster. In these patients a high increase in varicella-zoster virus (VZV) antibody titer was detected, indicating secondary VZV infection. Histologic examinations of skin biopsy from a patient with widespread lesions (case 4) revealed a mixture of EM, toxic epidermal necrolysis and herpetic virus infection. VZV should be included in the list of infectious agents able to trigger EM and Stevens-Johnson syndrome.
报告了4例带状疱疹诱发的大疱性多形红斑(EM)。3例患者在胸部带状疱疹发作后10至14天出现广泛的皮肤病变。在这些患者中检测到水痘-带状疱疹病毒(VZV)抗体滴度大幅升高,表明继发VZV感染。对一名有广泛病变患者(病例4)的皮肤活检进行组织学检查,发现有EM、中毒性表皮坏死松解症和疱疹病毒感染的混合表现。VZV应列入能够引发EM和史蒂文斯-约翰逊综合征的感染因子名单中。
