Neurological complications caused by herpes zoster include aseptic meningitis, white matter disease, peripheral motor neuropathy, and Guillain-Barr\u00e9 syndrome. However, reduced unilateral sweating caused by the VZV is very rare.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Case Presentation<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>This article reports the case of a 34-year-old woman who was admitted to our hospital with sore throat, dizziness, and reduced sweating on the left side of her body. Physical examination found herpes lesions on the left upper lip and left external ear canal (scabbed) and reduced sweating on the left side of the body. Head magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) with contrast showed no abnormalities. After a lumbar puncture, the patient was diagnosed with viral meningitis by VZV infection. The electromyographic skin sympathetic reflex indicated damage to the left sympathetic nerve.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>Secondary unilateral sweating reduction is a rare neurological complication of herpes zoster, caused by damage to the autonomic nervous system. Literature review and comprehensive examination indicated that the reduced unilateral sweating was due to the activation of latent herpes zoster virus in the autonomic ganglia which has damaged the autonomic nervous system. For patients who exhibit acute hemibody sweat reduction, doctors should consider the possibility of secondary autonomic nervous system damage caused by herpes zoster.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/s12883-024-03770-5","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,7,24]],"date-time":"2024-07-24T08:11:33Z","timestamp":1721808693000},"update-policy":"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Reduced unilateral sweating caused by varicella zoster virus infection: a case report"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"24","author":[{"given":"Wenju","family":"Li","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Bingquan","family":"Leng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jing","family":"Zhao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yu","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lili","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Chang","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kun","family":"Hong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,7,24]]},"reference":[{"issue":"3","key":"3770_CR1","first-page":"149","volume":"40","author":"C Bienkowski","year":"2019","unstructured":"Bienkowski C, Kowalczyk M, Talarek E, Pokorska-Spiewak M, Kierdaszuk B, Marczynska M.
