Human scabies affects all social classes and different races around the world. It is highly contagious, but the exact figures on its prevalence are unknown. A 19-year-old male patient was admitted to the emergency room reporting fever (38°C) and multiple lesions throughout the body, except face, soles, and palms. Lesions were non-pruritic, which hampered the initial diagnostic suspicion. Skin biopsy was performed, and the final diagnosis was crusted scabies (Norwegian). It was concluded that human scabies is a significant epidemic disease, due to its different clinical manifestations, and because it is extremely contagious.
人类疥疮影响着世界各地所有社会阶层和不同种族的人群。它具有高度传染性,但其确切的流行率尚不清楚。一名19岁男性患者因发热(38°C)和全身多处出现皮疹(面部、脚底和手掌除外)被送往急诊室。皮疹无瘙痒感,这使得最初的诊断产生了疑问。进行了皮肤活检,最终诊断为结痂性疥疮(挪威疥疮)。结论是,由于人类疥疮有不同的临床表现且极具传染性,它是一种严重的流行病。
