ABSTRACT
Varicella is a common viral disease of childhood with typical clinical presentation. Some of viral exanthemas can be aggravated by sun exposure, trauma and inflammation. Photodistribution of varicella is rare. We report a case of 11 year-old girl who presented with varicella particularly distributed on sun exposed area.
