August 13, 201213 yr We recently had a full term normal vaginal delivered baby. Who had bilaterally on flanks scar like marks(see photo). His antenatal history and other examination is unremarkable. No associated anomaly as well. Don't know what it is at 'zero' hours of life...! Please share your views.
August 21, 201213 yr May be congenital varicella syndrome scars? Any rash before 20th week of pregnancy? I would rule out congenital varicella syndrome with PCR of VZV and look for associated malformations (eye,cerebral US...)
August 23, 201213 yr I donot have any clues, never seen such leisions on day one of life. Please keep us updated about the case and biopsy result
