Author ProfileAbstract
We report an atypical presentation of a current 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.10 Apr 2022Submitted to Clinical Case Reports 13 Apr 2022Submission Checks Completed
