Abstract
A fatal case of chickenpox in a healthy 6-year-old girl is reported. She presented with hemorrhagic bullae from thrombocytopenia and then progressed rapidly to disseminated infection involving many systems causing myocarditis, pneumonitis and hepatitis. A peculiar blood picture with marked leukocytosis (leukemoid reaction) is revised and discussed.Entities:
