Herpes zoster most commonly occurs in elderly patients, and usually affects sensory neurons. Therefore, its characteristic symptoms are segmental pain, itching, and sensory changes in the affected areas. A 71-yr-old woman experienced painful herpetic rash on the right cervical 2-4 dermatomes for 16 days. Two days after the onset of the rash, she was diagnosed with herpes zoster, and prescribed 250 mg famciclovir three times a day for 7 days, pregabalin 150 mg twice a day, and tramadol 150 mg once a day for 14 days, by a dermatologist. Despite medication, her pain was rated at an intensity of 6/10 on the numeric rating scale. In addition, she complained of severe itching sensation on the affected dermatomes. Superficial cervical plexus block (SCPB) was performed at the right C4 level with 15 ml 0.5% lidocaine plus triamcinolone 30 mg. Five days after the procedure, pain and itching completely disappeared. SCPB may be an effective option for the treatment of acute pain and itching arising from herpes zoster, and for the prevention of postherpetic neuralgia.

An important technique of the present invention is primarily to parallel light detection, self-pulse therapy after diagnosis. Herpes zoster is a disease caused by varicella zoster virus, and the virus that has been latent in the dorsal root ganglion that controls the skin segment loses its immune system and physically damages it. It is an acute skin disease in which acute pain and bullous rash occur along the sensory ganglia, which are rehab by inducers such as malignant tumors. Dorsal root ganglion after complete recovery of varicella, relapsed after incubation in brain ganglion, latent virus sometimes suppressed activity by cell mediated immunity, and in cell ganglion with reduced cellular immunity. It proliferates and destroys neurons, causing pain while forming a rash and blisters. This can reduce cell necrosis and increase the phagocytosis and enzymatic activity through the movement of ions through the cell membrane, depolarization and membrane potential change, growth factor secretion, calcium ion transfer, chondrocyte synthesis, etc., And may offer treatment options for lesions of herpes zoster and post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN).Therefore, according to the present research, the diagnosis and treatment device of treating paing for herpes zoster and post-herpetic pain can be implemented in the early stage of herpes zoster, and conventional analgesic regulation, anti-inflammatory effect, post-herpetic neuralgia.

대상포진(Herpes Zoster:HZ)은 수두 대상포진 바이러스(Varicella Zoster virus)에 의해 야기된 속발성 또는 잠복성 감염이다. 증령에 따라 바이러스 특이적 면역 및 세포 매개 면역력이 감소하면서 바이러스가 재활성화되기 때문에, 대상포진은 주로 노년층에서 호발한다. 대상포진에 이환되면, 극심한 급성 통증이 발생하게 되고 수개월에 걸쳐서 회복하게 된다. 포진후신경통(Postherpetic neuralgia:PNH)은 대상포진의 대표적인 합병증의 하나로, 대상포진에 이환된 후 발생한 통증이 3개월 이상 회복되지 않을 때, 포진후신경통으로 진단할 수 있다. 임상적 증상으로는 주기적으로 찌르는 듯한 통증이 동반되는 타는 듯한 통증, 이질통이 발생할 수 있으며, 감각저하 또는 지각이상을 보일 수 있다. $Neurometer^{(R)}$(neuroselective sensory nerve conduction threshold: sNCT, Automated current perception threshold: CPT, neurotron incorporated. Baltimore, Maryland. 21209 U.S.A.)는 신경의 감각이상을 평가하는 데 유용하게 쓰이는 평가기구이다. 이번 증례는 포진후신경통을 주소로 내원한 환자의 치료 증례를 통해, 포진후신경통의 발생기전을 고찰해보고, 그 치료법에 대하여 알아보고, 또한 치료과정 중의 경과관찰 방법으로서 $Neurometer^{(R)}$를 이용하여, 감각이상의 평가 및 경과관찰시 지각이상에 대한 정량적인 평가를 시도하였다.

대식세포 활성 증후군(MAS, Macrophage activation syndrome)은 전신 홍반성 루푸스(SLE, systemic lupus erythematous) 환자에서 감염에 의해 나타날 수 있는 드문 합병증이다. MAS는 기저의 자가면역질환의 임상양상과 유사하게 나타나거나 혹은 감염성 합병증과 혼돈될 수 있어 감별에 주의 하여야 한다. 14세 여환이 2주간 지속되는 발열과 통증을 동반하는 얼굴의 피부 발진을 주소로 내원하였다. 피부 발진과 간비대, 범혈구 감소증, aspartate aminotransferase, lactate dehydrogenase, 혈청 ferritin이 상승하여, MAS를 의심하였다. 피부 병변과 항핵체 양성, C3와 C4의 감소, 간접 쿰스검사 양성으로 SLE를 진단하였다. 따라서 본 증례는 MAS가 HSV에 의하여 촉발된 것을, SLE의 첫 증상으로서 나타낸 증례로서, 촉발 요인 및 기저질환을 치료함으로써 중증의 합병증 없이 호전되었다.

Objectives: Few studies of pediatric Epstein-Barr virus (EBV)-associated infectious mononucleosis (IM) have been conducted in Korea. We evaluated the clinical features of children with IM to define differences according to age. Methods: We conducted retrospective chart reviews of 68 children aged 0 to 15 years who were diagnosed by EBV-associated IM with EBV-Viral Capsid Antigen(VCA) IgM at laboratory test and were admitted between 2010 and 2014. The children were classified into four age groups: aged 0-3, 4-6, 7-9, and 10-15 years. Results: The age distribution of patients was as follows: 19 (27.9%) 0-3, 25 (36.8%) 4-6, 13 (19.1%) 7-9, and 11 (16.2%) 10-15. Fever was the most common presentation regardless of age. It was more common in the 0-3 group than the 4-6 group (P = 0.018). Pharyngitis was more common in the 7-9 group than the 0-3 group (P = 0.048), and myalgia was more common in the 10-15 group than the 0-3 group (P = 0.007). Pharyngitis was accompanied by lymphadenopathy, protracted fever, and rash. In the 0-3 age group, the prevalence of rash was higher while the percentage of atypical lymphocytes was lower, but there was no statistical support for this tendency. There were no differences in the frequency of hepatosplenomegaly or laboratory findings between age groups. Conclusions: IM is not uncommon in young children and its clinical presentation varies with age. Therefore, IM should be suspected in young febrile children with pharyngitis and rash despite low percentages of atypical lymphocytes.
