Scabies is a cutaneous infectious disease caused by the ectoparasite . The disease has gained attention due to its increasing incidence in recent years. Rare and atypical forms of scabies can imitate many other cutaneous conditions. Such unfamiliar presentations may lead to misdiagnosis and mistreatment. Localised scabies is extremely rare and only few cases have been reported in the relevant literature. Herein, we report the case of a 4-month-old girl presenting with localised scabies limited to the right plantar surface. To the best of our knowledge, scabies restricted to the plantar region has never been reported in the paediatric population. Furthermore, scabies restricted to a single foot has never been reported in any age group. Awareness about the atypical and extraordinary manifestations of scabies can lead to early diagnosis and treatment and, thus, decrease disease-related morbidity and risk of transmission.
疥疮是一种由外寄生虫引起的皮肤传染病。由于近年来发病率不断上升,该疾病引起了人们的关注。疥疮的罕见和非典型形式可能模仿许多其他皮肤疾病。这种不熟悉的表现可能导致误诊和误治。局限性疥疮极为罕见,相关文献中仅报道过少数几例。在此,我们报告了一例 4 月龄女婴,其临床表现为局限于右侧足底的局限性疥疮。据我们所知,儿童人群中从未有过局限于足底的疥疮报道。此外,任何年龄段都从未有过局限于单脚的疥疮报道。对疥疮的非典型和特殊表现的认识可导致早期诊断和治疗,从而降低与疾病相关的发病率和传播风险。
