Description |
Herpes zoster ophthalmicus (HZO) accounts for 10-20% of cases of varicella zoster virus (VZV) reactivation.1 Neuro-ophthalmic manifestations include cranial nerve (CN) involvement, but the underlying mechanism is not always known.2 We present a case of polycranial neuropathy and thrombophlebitis in the setting of HZO. We propose that a venous vasculitis may mediate some HZOrelated cranial neuropathies. |
