 AB    A 56-year-old previously healthy man suffered from an attack of
       disseminated herpes zoster, followed by multifocal neurologic
       involvement. The patient was a human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1
       (HTLV-1) carrier. HTLV-1 infection, even though normally asymptomatic,
       has been suggested to be one of the risk factors for severe herpes virus
       infection and its associated neurologic disorders.
