Abstract
A 67-year-old man with metastatic melanoma and chronic lymphocytic leukemia was inadvertently given a vaccinia melanoma oncolysate vaccination. He developed progressive vaccinia at the site of inoculation. The lesion started to heal only when he was treated with ribavirin. Vaccinia immune globulin was administered and appeared to help control the initial lesion and limit the development of satellite lesions.Entities:
