| Popis: |
Eczema herpeticum is an extensive vesicular eruption caused by cutaneous dissemination of herpes simplex virus in patients who have underlying skin conditions or epidermal barrier disruption. Herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV 1) is the most common etiology. This is the first report in Chile of a case of eczema herpeticum caused by HSV 2 in a patient with Darier's disease, We review the literature and emphasize the use of sensitive and specific assays as real time polymerase chain reaction, that allow to initiate timely the correct treatment. |
