We present two patients who developed granuloma annulare in the scars from previous herpes zoster. The development of granuloma annulare in herpes zoster scars may represent an atypical delayed hypersensitivity immune reaction to herpes zoster/varicella virus antigen(s) or a tissue antigen altered by the virus.
