Cutaneous alterations are common in neonates. Nevertheless, no reliable studies exist to characterize the type and frequency of skin diseases in Mexican newborns. We carried out a prospective study for 6 month on 1,000 children to analyze cutaneous lesions present during the neonatal period in our population. Of these children, 790 (78%) were neonates admitted to the well-baby nursery, and 220 (22%) were in the sick-baby nursery. Comparison was made between the two groups. It was found that all the newborns (100%) from both groups presented from 2 to 10 different cutaneous lesion. A wide variety of skin diseases were found, but most were of a transitory nature. Birthmarks were less common and malformations even more so. By means of the X2 method, there was no statistically-significant difference between the two groups (p > 0.1).
皮肤改变在新生儿中很常见。然而，目前尚无可靠研究来描述墨西哥新生儿皮肤病的类型和发生率。我们对1000名儿童进行了为期6个月的前瞻性研究，以分析我们人群中新生儿期出现的皮肤病变。在这些儿童中，790名（78%）是入住健康婴儿护理室的新生儿，220名（22%）是入住患病婴儿护理室的新生儿。对两组进行了比较。结果发现，两组所有新生儿（100%）都出现了2至10种不同的皮肤病变。发现了各种各样的皮肤病，但大多数是暂时性的。胎记不太常见，畸形则更少见。通过X2检验方法，两组之间没有统计学上的显著差异（p>0.1）。
