pubmed:abstractText |
We describe 2 renal transplant recipients with severe but reversible neurological manifestations related to Varicella zoster virus (VZV) cerebral vasculopathy. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first description of cerebral VZV vasculopathy in solid organ transplant recipients. We review the published literature on the clinical presentation, diagnosis and treatment. In solid organ transplant recipients presenting with neurological signs and symptoms, a diagnosis of VZV-associated vasculopathy should be considered.
