Abstract
Chickenpox in the pregnant woman occasionally leads to infection and teratogenesis of the early to midgestational embryo. We describe the developmental assessment and clinical management of a 5-year-old girl with classic varicella congenital defects syndrome. This patient is unique with respect to (1) a generally favorable outcome in spite of the severity of her anomalies involving the eyes, limbs and skin, (2) a completely normal evaluation of her immunologic status and (3) a serologically documented herpes zoster infection at age 41 months.
