Abstract excerpt

Varicella zoster virus (VZV) seronegative patients under immunosuppressive therapy are at risk for severe life-threatening varicella. A 25-year-old male patient presented with rash and hepatitis. He had been known to suffer from Crohn's disease and received immunosuppressive treatment with azathioprine. The patient showed dyspnoea, and presented with a generalized rash with vesicular lesions typical for...
