| herpes virus, kaposi sarcoma-associated | Species of an unnamed genus, subfamily gammaherpesvirinae, isolated from patients with aids-related and "classical" kaposi sarcoma.

| herpes whitlow | Herpes simplex inflammation at base of fingernail. (05 Mar 2000) |
| herpes zoster | <virology> A reactivation of the same Herpes virus that is responsible for chicken pox. This results in a painful blistery red rash that is confined to one side of the body. The zoster rash affects one nerve distribution or dermatome. Facial rash can lead to optic nerve involvement with resultant blindness. Synonym: shingles. (06 Mar 1998) |
| herpes zoster ophthalmicus | Virus infection of the gasserian ganglion and its nerve branches characterised by pain and vesicular eruptions with much swelling. Ocular involvement is usually heralded by a vesicle on the tip of the nose. This area is innervated by the nasociliary nerve. (12 Dec 1998) |
| herpes zoster oticus | Herpes zoster involving the facial and auditory nerves associated with ipsilateral facial paralysis, usually transitory, and herpetic vesicles of the external ear or tympanic membrane, which also may or may not be associated with tinnitus, vertigo, and hearing disorders. (12 Dec 1998) |

| herpes zoster virus | <virology> A virus in the family Herpesviridae which causeschickenpox initially and may go dormant and later re-activate, causing the disease shingles. Chickenpox is a common, highly communicabledisease that causes fever and fluid-filled blisters on the skin.Shingles are characterised by extremely painful skin eruptions. (09 Oct 1997) |
| herpes, genital | A viral infection transmitted through intimate contact with the moist mucous linings of the genitals. This contact can involve the mouth, the vagina or the genital skin. The herpes simplex type 2 virus enters the mucous membranes through microscopic tears. Once inside, the virus travels to nerve the roots near the spinal cord and settles there permanently. When an infected person has a herpes outbreak, the virus travels down the nerve fibres to the site of the original infection and when it reaches the skin, the classic redness and blisters occur. The outbreak of herpes is closely related to the functioning of the immune system. Women who have suppressed immune systems, either through stress, disease, or medications, have more frequent and longer-lasting outbreaks. Commonly just called herpes. (12 Dec 1998) |
| herpesviridae | <virology> Family of DNA-containing viruses that infect a wide range of vertebrates, in humans, members of this family are responsible for chickenpox, oral & genital herpes, and mononucleosis. (09 Oct 1997) |
