Calcification in Chickenpox Pneumonia

Louis Raider M.D., F.C.C.P.1

1 Department of Radiology, Providence Hospital, Mobile, Alabama

The relationship between pulmonary calcifications and chickenpox pneumonia is reviewed. A case is presented in which pulmonary calcification developed over a seven-year interval following Varicella pneumonia in a patient who had a previously negative chest radiograph. After accidental death, an autopsy was performed and the pulmonary findings are presented. It is felt that an etiologic relationship has been established between the patient's Varicella pneumonia and her subsequent pulmonary calcifications.
