AbstractPrimary varicella-zoster virus (VZV) infection typically occurs in childhood and is generally mild. However, in immunocompromised patients, VZV-related diseases can be more severe. Fatal cases of disseminated varicella are still rare. We report a fatal case of disseminated varicella in a young adult on long-term oral corticosteroids.Copyright © 2025 The Authors.
