A case of Norwegian scabies in an immuno-suppressed patient is reported. This skin ectoparasite, rarely described in healthy individuals, varies from common scabies for clinical presentation, appearance and distribution of skin lesions. Norwegian scabies should be suspected in any atypical itching, or non, rash in immunosuppressed patient. Attention is also drawn to the importance of early diagnosis to precede familiar and hospital epidemics.
报告了一例免疫抑制患者的挪威疥疮病例。这种皮肤外寄生虫在健康个体中很少被描述，其临床表现、皮损外观和分布与普通疥疮不同。对于免疫抑制患者出现的任何非典型瘙痒或无皮疹情况，都应怀疑为挪威疥疮。还提请注意早期诊断对于预防家庭和医院内流行的重要性。
