Localisation of varicella lesions around pyoderma: A distinct phenomenon

The knowledge about the localisation of skin lesion can be a key to diagnose and to understand the underlying mechanism of many skin diseases. Two phenomena "isomorphic response of Koebner" and "isotopic response" have been described in this regard. Here we report a case of varicella showing a phenomenon partially akin to both isomorpic and isotopic responses but with certain distinct variations.
