Three children developed macular atrophy and anetoderma after varicella. These lesions were distinct from typical chickenpox scars and followed their own prolonged course, defying easy classification.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Dermatology
  • Pediatrics

Background:

  • Macular atrophy is a condition characterized by the degeneration of the macula.
  • Varicella (chickenpox) is a common childhood infectious disease.
  • Anetoderma is a skin condition characterized by localized areas of macular atrophy.

Observation:

  • Three pediatric cases presented with typical macular atrophy.
  • The macular atrophy appeared during or shortly after varicella infection.
  • Anetoderma lesions were observed independently of varicella scarring and had a prolonged course.

Findings:

  • The observed cases of macular atrophy and anetoderma were not easily classifiable as primary or secondary types.
  • The association between varicella and these specific dermatological manifestations is unusual.

  • The study enumerates various dermatoses linked to macular atrophy and discusses physiopathological hypotheses.

    • Implications:

    • This report highlights a potential, albeit rare, association between varicella infection and the development of macular atrophy and anetoderma in children.
    • Further research is warranted to understand the underlying mechanisms and potential causal links.
    • Clinical awareness of this association may aid in the diagnosis and management of similar cases.
