Zabrak Scalp Necrosis

"Ah, it's just a low-grade flesh-eating virus. Makes Zabraks' horns fall out. Embarrassing, not life-threatening."

- Doc

Zabrak Scalp Necrosis was a relatively low-grade flesh-eating virus that afflicted the Zabrak species around the time of the renewed war between the Sith Empire and the Galactic Republic. A doctor developed a vaccine for the virus, which caused its victims' horns to fall out, and the fame he gained from this achievement led to his appointment as acting head of the Republic Health Administration.

Behind the scenes
Zabrak Scalp Necrosis was first mentioned in the BioWare–LucasArts video game Star Wars: The Old Republic, during the conversation "Opportunity Knocks" with the Jedi Knight class' companion character Doc.
