To the Editor.— In their article comparing the effectiveness of Tzanck smears with viral isolation in the diagnosis of cutaneous infection by herpes simplex, Solomon et al 1 found that the Tzanck smear was positive in only 53.1% of examinations, whereas cultures were positive in 78.1%. Tzanck smears were performed as follows: "The lesion base was then

Summary A virus, identified as a strain of herpes simplex, was isolated from the brain of an infant who died during an illness characterized by signs of encephalitis. Acidophilic intranuclear inclusion bodies and encephalitic changes were seen in histologic sections of the brain.

To the Editor .—I tend toward intermittent herpes simplex of my right nare several times a year. On one occasion, in 1986, I had labyrinthitis without herpes simplex. I suspected a possible connection, so I took 1200 mg of acyclovir (two 200-mg capsules three times a day). The labyrinthitis diminished in 24 hours and cleared in 72 hours.

Herpes simplex virus (HSV) commonly causes human infections in the orofacial region (HSV-1) and in the genital region (HSV-2). Productive viral infection in mucosal epithelial cells may result in clinical symptoms and is followed by a latent infection within sensory neurons.

Abstract Herpes simplex virus (HSV) infections of the central nervous system (CNS) have varied presentations. Some, such as encephalitis, can have devastating outcomes. In only a few short decades a vast amount of knowledge has been uncovered about the pathogenicity of this virus, its diagnosis, and treatment. Non-invasive diagnostics with polymerase

Herpes simplex virus (HSV) causes a variety of illnesses in th e community and hospital settings (Table). Nosocomial infections with this virus may result from: 1) reactivation of latent infection, especially in patients whose immune systems are compromised; 2) spread from mother to infant; 3) spread from patients to hospital personnel; 4) spread from ...

The herpes simplex viruses (HSV) are responsible for a variety of infections of the central nervous system and mucocutaneous surfaces. Both subtypes, HSV-1 and HSV-2, are similar in structure. The viral core consists of a genome of linear, double-stranded DNA surrounded by a regular icosahedral protein capsid.

This article reviews the current concepts for the diagnosis and treatment of Herpes simplex keratitis and its complications, discussing characteristics of the virus, the prevalence of the disease, chemical and clinical differentiation between Types I and II Herpesvirus hominis, and the many clinical presentations of Type I disease. The antiviral agents

Most of the world's population is eventually infected with herpes simplex virus type 1, type 2, or both. Most infected persons harbor latent virus in nerve ganglia for the rest of their lives. True primary infections, nonprimary first-episode infections, and recurrent infections can be asymptomatic or clinical, but all of these are contagious.

Herpes simplex keratitis (HSK) results from an infection with the herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) also known as human herpesvirus type 1 (HHV-1). Primary infection may involve an ocular or non-ocular site, following which latency might be established principally in the trigeminal ganglion but also in the cornea. During latency, the virus appears as
