Résumé
The fetal consequences of chickenpox complicating pregnancy depends on the period of gestation at which the infection is contracted. The extremely rare classical form of congenital varicella syndrome, resulting from maternal varicella infection in the first trimester of pregnancy, is being reported here. The unusual features in this baby are bilateral hypoplastic lower extremities, fracture of bones, a normal electroencephalogram and phantom hernias of the anterior abdominal wall.

One hundred cases of herniae of the linea alba [midline spontaneous ventral herniae] were studied. Out of these we had 32 cases of paraumbilical hernlae which we regarded as defects in the lhiea alba nearest to the umbilicus. We believe that these herniae were due to protrusions of the extraperitoneal-fat through vascular lacunae. Vertical repair with imblication of the linea alba in its extent above the umbilicus was done using stainless steel wire. This technique proved very efficient in almost all cases. Two cases of spigelian herniae were presented and described. We had one more case of spontaneous lateral ventral hernia, due to congenital muscular deficiency
