TI  - Early-second-trimester use of acyclovir in treating herpes zoster in a bone 
      marrow transplant patient. A case report.

AB  - Bone marrow transplantation from a human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-identical 
      sibling for treatment of severe aplastic anemia among women of reproductive age 
      is becoming more common. Successful pregnancy has been reported to occur in 
      several such patients. A woman delivered a healthy, term, female infant 18 months 
      after a transplant from her HLA-identical sister. Her pregnancy was complicated 
      by disseminated herpes zoster, treated with intravenous acyclovir at 14 weeks' 
      gestation, before the diagnosis of pregnancy. While there have been several case 
      reports involving the use of acyclovir in the third trimester, primarily in the 
      treatment of varicella infections, there have been no previous reports of such an 
      early utilization of this antiviral drug.
