Ipsilateral renal dysplasia with hypertensive heart disease in an infant with cutaneous varicella lesions: An unusual presentation of congenital varicella syndrome - 13/06/12
Abstract |
A child with congenital varicella syndrome including cutaneous lesions and ipsilateral renal dysplasia with hypertensive heart disease is described. Varicella was contracted during the tenth week of gestation. Typical congenital varicella bullae, high titer of anti-varicella-zoster virus IgM, and a small right kidney were noted after birth. Hypertensive heart disease resulting from renal dysplasia occurred at 1 year of age. The cutaneous lesions and the dysplastic kidney involved the same dermatomes. Nephrectomy proved to be the treatment of choice for hypertension and congestive heart failure. (J Am Acad Dermatol 2000;43:864-6.)
