Summary
The shingles (Herpes Zoster) it is the sharp infectious disease, that is caused by the Varicella Zoster virus which is also the cause of smallpox disease. After the primary infection the virus stays in form of latency in rolls of cranial nerves, in the rolls of spinal ganglion or the nerves of the peripheral nervous system. The development of shingles (Herpes Zoster) starts after a period of few weeks or even after a few years as a result of activitating delatescent contagion and the development of infectious changes. The factors initiating virus´ activations can be, among others, UV radiation psychical or mechanical injury, infections, neoplasmic diseases (cancers), immunosuppressive treatment, X-ray therapy. It´s a neurotropic virus that main characteristic are skin changes corresponding with the nervure of one (or several) back roots (segments). At older people, due to natural involution of immunological system and the occurance of the diseases disadvantaging natural immunity, the shingles is comparatively frequent. In this ill´s group the course of contagion is heavier, it requires more intensive treatment and is more often complicated by the long-term neuralgias. In this thesis the generalized gangrenous and haemorrhagic shingles was introduced at the patient in course of lymphatic leukaemia of the type B. The special attention was paid on the clinical presentment/image and the therapeutic treatment. As a result of applied general pharmacotherapy profitable effects of treatment were received.
