[Coenaesthesia after infection with Varicella zoster virus. The psychodynamic meaning of suffering a children's disease at adult age].
The case report is presented of a 33-year-old male who developed coenaesthesia after suffering from chickenpox. While central nervous involvement of the herpes zoster virus infection was not found, suffering a children's disease at an adult age proved an important psychodynamic factor for release of the coenaesthetic symptomatology.
