Varicella zoster virus meningitis with hypoglycorrhachia in the absence of rash in an immunocompetent woman.

Ali A Habib1, Don Gilden, D Scott Schmid, Joseph E Safdieh.   

Abstract

We report varicella-zoster virus (VZV) meningitis in a healthy adult woman with no antecedent rash and with hypoglycorrhachia. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) examination revealed the presence of VZV DNA, anti-VZV immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibody, and intrathecal production of anti-VZV IgG antibody.
