Abstract
Varicella-zoster virus is a human herpesvirus that causes chickenpox (varicella), becomes latent in cranial nerve and dorsal root ganglia, and frequently reactivates to produce shingles (zoster) and postherpetic neuralgia. Varicella zoster meningitis is a rare complication after varicella zoster infection. It usually affects a patient of immunocompromised or impaired cellular immunity, is rare in a immunocompetent child. We report two cases of aseptic meningitis in association with varicella zoster, not having any complication in the immunocompetent children.
