Acyclovir-resistant varicella infection with atypical lesions in a non-HIV leukemic infant.
    Acta paediatrica (Oslo, Norway : 1992), 2000, Volume: 89, Issue:12

    An HIV-negative infant presented with VZV primary infection during the maintenance therapy for megakaryoblastic leukaemia. The lesions were initially vesicular and necrotic but became verrucous and hyperkeratotic. A clinical resistance to acyclovir was suspected and confirmed by histologic and virologic studies. The patient was successfully treated by foscarnet.. resistance of VZV to acyclovir may occur after a short treatment in a non-AIDS patient.
