A month prior to admission, this patient had developed unilateral crops of vesicles along the surgical scar which was apposing her left infra-mammary fold. This was preceded by fatigue and neuralgia. Histology revealed acute inflammation related to a probable Herpesviridae infection.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>DISCUSSION:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In this report we discuss the first case of a viral infection predisposing to a wound dehiscence occurring in an old surgical scar.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>CONCLUSION:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This case report illustrates the real but rare possibility of recurrent herpes zoster causing gradual thinning of an old surgical scar.
