Herpes Zoster and Motor Involvement- Report of 2 Cases
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 12
Abstract
Herpes zoster caused by reactivation of varicella zoster virus is a common neurocutaneous viral infection. Motor involvement generally involves cranial nerves but motor palsies of spinal roots due to herpes zoster are also rarely recorded. We have come across two cases of motor paresis following herpes zoster one of which resolved after treatment. It is likely that if patients with herpes zoster are examined carefully, motor signs would be found more frequently.
