ABSTRACT
The clinical and histopathological features of herpes zoster (HZ) are usually straightforward. Atypical histological presentations, in the absence of the classical viral cytopathic changes, are well documented and can make the diagnosis of HZ extremely difficult. Herein, we review the existing literature on atypical cutaneous histological manifestations of the disease, with emphasis on the subtle clues, use of immunohistochemistry, and potential pitfalls.
