Abstract：
The varicella-zoster virus reactivates to cause the \"herpes zoster\" (HZ). \'\'Varicella-zoster virus\'\' (VZV) termed as \'\'HHV-3\'\' or \'\'human herpesvirus-3\'\' infection causes herpes zoster. Varicella, the primary form of the virus, is chickenpox, and the secondary form of the virus is herpes zoster also called shingles. During prior chicken pox episodes, this virus enters the body through cutaneous nerve endings and becomes dormant in the dorsal root ganglia. It sometimes affects the orofacial region and appears as unilaterally distributed burning pain, multiple, painful vesicular lesions, and ulcerations. Immunocompromised people are more likely to have disseminated zoster, which is defined as the involvement of three or more dermatomes. These are most likely to occur in elderly, immunocompromised patients, patients undergoing cancer chemotherapy, patients on immunosuppressants, and patients suffering from AIDS. This is a study of a male geriatric patient, aged 74 years, who reported unilateral pain, swelling, as well as multiple ulcerations on the left side of his face, extraorally as well as intraorally. The case was diagnosed as a herpes zoster infection involving V1 and V2 dermatome of the trigeminal nerve.
摘要：
水痘-带状疱疹病毒重新激活，导致“带状疱疹”（HZ）。\'\'水痘带状疱疹病毒\'\'（VZV）称为\'\'HHV-3\'\'或\'\'人类疱疹病毒-3\'\'感染引起带状疱疹。水痘,病毒的主要形式，是水痘,这种病毒的次要形式是带状疱疹，也称为带状疱疹。在之前的水痘发作期间，这种病毒通过皮肤神经末梢进入人体，并在背根神经节中休眠。它有时会影响口面区域，并表现为单侧分布的灼热疼痛，多个,疼痛的水疱性病变，和溃疡。免疫功能低下的人更有可能传播带状疱疹，这被定义为三个或更多的皮组的参与。这些最可能发生在老年人身上，免疫力低下的患者，接受癌症化疗的患者，服用免疫抑制剂的患者，和患有艾滋病的患者。这是一项针对男性老年患者的研究，74岁,报告单侧疼痛的人，肿胀,以及他左侧的多处溃疡，口外和口内。该病例被诊断为带状疱疹感染，涉及三叉神经的V1和V2皮段。
