We report an atypical presentation of a common disease to highlight the importance of making a correct diagnosis of scabies surrepticius in front of any itchy dermatosis especially in elderly patients. The misdiagnosis of this disease results in extensive infestation, especially with the use of corticosteroids.
我们报告一种常见疾病的非典型表现,以强调在面对任何瘙痒性皮肤病时,尤其是老年患者,正确诊断隐匿性疥疮的重要性。该病的误诊会导致广泛感染,尤其是在使用皮质类固醇的情况下。
