ABSTRACT
Verrucous rashes associated with varicella zoster virus (VZV) infection are well recognized in HIV infection. Seen rarely in transplant patients, no histologically confirmed case has been published in the transplant setting. We now report chronic, localized, verrucous VZV in a renal transplant recipient presenting with cutaneous dissemination. This case highlights the need to consider chronic VZV infection in the differential diagnosis of skin lesions even in the VZV seronegative transplant recipient without substantial exposure to antiviral agents.
