[The clinical and treatment characteristics of patients with herpes zoster in different locations].

An analysis is presented of the clinical course and results of treatment of 102 patients with herpes zoster. The spinal ganglia of the thoracic region and trigeminal nerve ganglia were most frequently involved. The disease was manifested not only in local disorders but also in generalized systemic vegetative-trophic and vascular disorders. The authors report a high therapeutic efficiency of complex treatment of patients with herpes zoster using antiviral, antiherpetic and detoxification agents, immunostimulators, vegetotropic drugs, physiotherapy and ointment applications.
