Journal Title: International Journal of Health & Medical Research - Year 2023, Vol 2, Issue 09
Abstract
Scabies surrepticius represents the non-classic atypical presentation of scabies and diagnosing scabies in these individuals could be difficult. We present a clinical case of a 71-year-old woman with intense body pruritus for about 2 years, unresponsive to oral and topical antibiotics, corticosteroid creams, topical calcineurin inhibitors, as well as antiallergic agents, due to a suspected allergic reaction.
