Abstract

Varicella infection in children is a common self-limited illness with neurological complications in less than 0. 1% of cases. Longitudinally extensive Transverse myelitis (LETM) is uncommon in children following infection with Varicella-zoster virus. We describe a case of 13-yr immunocompetent girl with LETM following Varicella infection showing a dramatic clinical response to a combination of acyclovir and pulse steroids.
