Perinatal chikungunya induced scalded skin syndrome

Chikungunya is a rapidly emerging infectious disease worldwide caused by a virus that belongs to the Togaviridae family. It can have varied presentations, but vesiculobullous lesions are commonly described. A widespread dissemination of such lesions, however, is extremely rare. Person-to-person tran...
