Herpes zoster infections are frequent in immunosuppressed patients such as Hodgkin's lymphoma and systemic lupus erythematosus.<BR>22 patients with dermatomyositis (DM) and polymyositis (PM) were studied with regard to developement of herpes zoster.<BR>Herpes zoster occurred wihh high frequency (22.8%) in patients with DM and PM. Patients had no multiple episodes. The course of herpes zoster was benign: no patients developed disseminated zoster and only one of the five patients had post herpetic neuraligia. Furthermore, patients tended to have mild or inactive stage in DM·PM when herpes zoster affected. The causes that herpes zoster occurred frequently in DM·PM were studied on clinical and laboratory findings of DM·PM patients. Abnormal titer of antinuclear antibody was significantly detected in patients with herpes zoster infection. In addition, two of the five patients with herpes zoster overlapped other collagen diseases. There were no correlation of age at the onset of DM·PM, sex, other clinical and laboratory manifestation between with and without herpes zoster infection. It was no relationship between steroid therapy and herpes zoster infection.
