Abstract

A previously healthy, 37-year-old immunocompetent man presented with disseminated cutaneous zoster and aseptic meningitis. Varicella zoster virus DNA was recovered from the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) by the polymerase chain reaction. Cytological evaluation of the CSF revealed 'reactive, highly atypical lymphocytosis'. The patient fully recovered after treatment with aciclovir.
