Background:

Varicella (chickenpox) in pregnant individuals requires careful management due to potential fetal and neonatal complications.
Understanding the timing of varicella infection during pregnancy is crucial for determining appropriate therapeutic strategies.

Observation:

Two cases of varicella in pregnant women were reviewed.
The review focused on fetal and neonatal risks associated with maternal varicella infection.

Findings:

Elective abortion is recommended if varicella occurs early in pregnancy.
Congenital varicella diagnosis is considered if infection occurs shortly after delivery.
Delivery should be avoided within two days before and five days after the onset of maternal rash due to high neonatal mortality.

Implications:

This review provides a therapeutic guide for managing varicella in pregnant patients.
The findings emphasize the importance of timing interventions to mitigate risks to the fetus and newborn.
Optimal management strategies can reduce neonatal mortality associated with maternal varicella.
