dc.description.abstract | Herpes zoster (HZ) is a common diagnosis in the emergency department, but herpes zoster ophthalmicus (HZO) is a rare form of shingles that typically presents with prodromal symptoms followed by a rash distributed along the V1-V2 dermatomes. Classically, HZO begins with flu-like symptoms including fever, myalgia and malaise for approximately one week. In the current case, we describe a woman who presented to our medical center with a headache and rash on the right forehead. HZO is a potentially serious reactivation of varicella-zoster virus (VZV) in the distribution of the ophthalmic division of the trigeminal nerve. The differential diagnosis of HZO is an important task for emergency physicians because of its rapid onset and severity. | en_US |
