A Case of Erythema Multiforme Exudativum as a Cause of Herpes Simplex Virus
Abstract
- Studies are reported on a patient with a ten-year history of recurrent attacks of erythema multiforme. In each instance, herpes simplex of the lip preceded the localized target-like eruption on the extremities by five to ten days. Intradermal skin test with a formaldehyde inactivated herpes simplex antigen produced skin eruption which appeared to be erythema multiforme clinically. The antibodies to the herpe simplex virus in the serum from the patient were demonstrated by complement f'ixation test with herpes simplex antigen.
