Abstract

Erythema multiforme(EM) is an acute disease characterized by targetlike lesions on the skin. These lesions are accompanied by mucosal membrane involvement and recurrent can be observed. A variety of factors can cause this condition. We present one case with erythema multiforme which has been developed by peroral herpes infection. It was observed that the lesions respond well to valacyclovir treatment. The recurrency has not been observed in the lesions. As a result, Herpes simplex virus as the most commonly identified infection agent in the literature, must be considered prior in EM.

Özet

Eritema multiforme (EM); karakateristik hedef benzeri ciltlezyonlarının var olduğu, mukozal tutulumun eşlik edebildiği,nadiren tekrar edebilen, birçok etkinin sebep olabileceği akut birhastalıktır. Bu yazıda perioral bölgedeki herpes enfeksiyonunaikincil olarak gelişen eritema multiforme olgusu sunuldu. Olgununkontrol fizik muayenesinde lezyonların valasiklovir tedavisine iyiyanıt verdiği gözlendi. Lezyonlarda tekrarlama gözlenmedi. Sonuçolarak nadir görülen EM hastalığında literatürde de en çok etkenolarak tanımlanan herpes simplex virüs enfeksiyonu öncelikli sebepolarak düşünülmelidir.
