Eczema Herpeticum Caused by Herpesvirus Type 2

A Case in a Patient With Darier Disease

Paul G. Hazen, MD; R. Bennett Eppes, MD

Arch Dermatol. 1977;113(8):1085-1086.


Abstract

• This, to our knowledge, is the first documented report of eczema herpeticum due to infection with herpesvirus hominis type 2. The virus was isolated from a patient with known Darier disease who developed Kaposi varicelliform eruption. Recent increases in the incidence of infection with type 2 herpes simplex as well as the high frequency of recurrence with this virus make this infection of potential significance in patients with preexisting cutaneous disease.

(Arch Dermatol 113:1085-1086, 1977)
