Özet

Bu makalede oldukça nadir rastlanan perinatal dönemde kazanılmış bir suçiçeği olgusu sunulmaktadır. Hamilelik sırasında geçirilen enfeksiyon fetüste spontan düşüklere, çeşitli anomalilerle seyreden konjenital varisella sendromuna veya sadece cilt döküntüleriyle karakterize klinik tabloya neden olabilmektedir. Bu makalede, döküntü, ateş ve emmeme şikayetleriyle getirilip, perinatal suçiçeği tanısı alan ve asiklovirle başarılı bir şekilde tedavi edilen 14 günlük bir olgu nadir görüldüğünden dolayı sunulmuştur.
