Abstract |
Many the pediatric patients have skin troubles, which require precise knowledge of the pediatrician about common skin diseases of children. Recently scabies seems to be increasing in spite of more improved living conditions in this: country. The diagnosis of this dermatosis is frequently missed in infants, because of a lack of the characteristic findings seen in adult patients, frequent simulation of other common skin diseases and lack of precise knowledge on the part of doctor. This report on four infants with scabies is presented to put emphasis on the importance o£
scabies in the differential diagnosis of common skin diseases of babies.
