Varicella Manifestation after Mastopexy with Simultaneous Breast Augmentation.

We report on a rare case of primary varicella infection manifestation in the early postoperative period after mastopexy with simultaneous breast augmentation that caused dehiscence of surgical wound edges and spread of infection to a subcutaneous fat layer, leading to unaesthetic scarring. Whether such dehiscence in the background of varicella occurred coincidentally or was specifically triggered by the infection is unknown. The treatment is comprised of oral antiviral therapy, surgical wound debridement, and topical application of antiseptic solutions and ointments.
