AbstractA 61-year-old man who underwent allogeneic bone marrow transplantation presented to our hospital with severe abdominal pain and no significant rash. Computed tomography revealed periarterial fat stranding around the celiac and superior mesenteric arteries. Skin and gastric biopsies revealed varicella-zoster virus (VZV) infection, leading to the diagnosis of VZV infection. Symptoms of VZV infection are severe and potentially fatal, making early intervention important. The characteristic findings of periarterial fat stranding around the celiac and superior mesenteric arteries on CT may play an important role in the early diagnosis of VZV infection.
