Notes:
Varicella (chicken pox), a most common disease, is rarely considered a serious entity by adult oriented anaesthetists and surgeons yet can have an extremely high morbidity and mortality in certain populations. Hospital protocols concerning postponement or cancellation of elective surgery in children suspected of harbouring the disease following exposure in daycare facilities or schools often tend to be ignored. The following is a series of three case reports illustrating different aspects of the problems confronting the anaesthetist and other operating room personnel when a child with varicella enters the surgery suite.
