Abstract

The itch mite var. has been a menace to humanity for ages. Diagnosing scabies can be a challenge in view of the varied presentations of the disease. The male genitalia are an important area of predilection of the mite. Examination of this often overlooked area is essential as it may reveal both characteristic and atypical manifestations of scabies. Genital involvement also attains special relevance in view of the possible sexual transmission of the mite. In addition to the morbidity caused by itching, patients may have to deal with myths, stigma, and embarrassment.

摘要

疥螨变种长期以来一直是人类的一大威胁。鉴于该疾病表现多样，疥疮的诊断可能具有挑战性。男性生殖器是螨虫偏爱的重要部位。检查这个常常被忽视的部位至关重要，因为它可能揭示疥疮的典型和非典型表现。鉴于螨虫可能通过性传播，生殖器受累也具有特殊的相关性。除了瘙痒引起的不适外，患者还可能要面对各种传言、污名和尴尬。
