Abstract

Data from 215 pregnant women exposed to varicella and 276 with varicella observed at the Tuscany Reference Center for Infectious Diseases in Pregnancy, Florence, Italy, in the period 1997-2016 were retrospectively collected. The risk of developing varicella was lower in exposed women who received varicella zoster immunoglobulin compared with those who did not receive it [42% (21 of 50) vs 72% (13 of 18); p = 0.0263]. Typical congenital varicella syndrome was observed in 1.56% of fetuses/neonates born from pregnant women with varicella.
