摘要

水痘-带状疱疹病毒（VZV）可导致免疫系统完好或受损的个体出现不同的疾病状态。脑膜脑炎和血栓性血小板减少性紫癜（TTP）都是与 VZV 相关的不常见的危及生命的疾病。关于 VZV 引起的 TTP 的报道很少，这可能是首例通过腰椎穿刺证实的 VZV 脑膜脑炎引起的 TTP。文献倾向于强调这种病理变化大多发生在免疫功能低下的宿主身上。在这里，我们介绍了一例由 VZV 脑膜脑炎引起的 TTP，患者免疫功能正常。

Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura due to varicella-zoster virus meningoencephalitis in an immunocompetent patient

Varicella-zoster virus (VZV) can cause variable disease states in individuals with intact and compromised immune systems. Both meningoencephalitis and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) are uncommon, life-threatening entities associated with VZV. There are few reported cases of TTP due to VZV and this may be the first case of TTP due to VZV meningoencephalitis confirmed through lumbar puncture. The literature tends to emphasize that this pathology mostly occurs in immunocompromised hosts. Here, we present a unique case of TTP due to VZV meningoencephalitis in a patient that was immunocompetent.
