A 77-year-old man who developed herpes zoster duplex with generalized eruptions is presented. Three strains of varicella-zoster virus (VZV) were isolated from 2 skin lesions of herpes zoster and one of the generalized eruptions. For strain differentiation, these 3 strains were investigated by restriction endonuclease analysis of the viral DNA. The 3 strains were identical, suggested that a single strain of VZV had been residing in a latent form in multiple spinal ganglions of this patient. We speculate that this strain of VZV in remote ganglions was reactivated by the operation of gastric cancer as a trigger, and, as a result, the 2 skin lesions of herpes zoster appeared, followed by development of generalized eruptions due to virus propagation from zoster lesions.
