Scabies infections of the breast in lactating individuals are not well described, especially how maternal infection can impact human milk feeding of hospitalized infants in the intensive care setting. This case report presents a critically ill female infant with a complex surgical history whose mother had an active scabies infection around the breast postpartum and wished to provide expressed human milk. In this case report, human milk was recommended despite maternal scabies infection. Given the limited information that is known about the risk of scabies transmission in human milk for critically ill infants, this case adds to the knowledge base and supports the call for further research.
哺乳期妇女乳房疥疮感染的描述并不完善，特别是母体感染如何影响重症监护环境中住院婴儿的人乳喂养。本病例报告介绍了一名患有复杂外科病史的危重症女婴，其母亲在产后乳房周围患有活动性疥疮，并希望提供母乳。在本病例报告中，尽管母亲患有疥疮感染，但仍建议使用母乳。鉴于目前已知的关于重症婴儿人乳中疥疮传播风险的信息有限，本病例增加了知识库，并呼吁进一步研究。
