Abstract
A retrospective clinical and transverse study, was practiced at the Millitary Central Hospital of Mexico, from September of 1990 to May of 1994. The objective was to recopilate all of the deliveries complicated by varicella in this hospital. We found that the incidence of deliveries complicated by varicella is 0.033%, with a mean at women age to 18.7 years; the clinical presentation of varicella was typical and without complications, the were no alterations in labor and delivery and they required no special treatment except for isolation; the newborns were of 37-42 weeks, 25% of them underwent varicella with a common clinical presentation even with prophilactic treatment (acyclovir) for been considered potentially infected. Distribution of varicella during pregnancy was of 22% during the first trimester, 40 during the second, 16% during the third and 22% during delivery.
