  • Title: Scalp involvement by Sarcoptes scabiei var hominis resembling seborrhoeic dermatitis in two immunocompromised patients with systemic lupus erythematosus.
    Author: Birry A, Jarrett P.
    Journal: N Z Med J; 2013 Aug 16; 126(1380):75-8. PubMed ID: 24126752.
    Abstract:
    Scabies is a common condition in New Zealand but scalp infestation by the mite is not often considered. Topical treatments traditionally do not involve the scalp. We report two cases of immunocompromised patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) who had scalp infestation clinically mimicking seborrhoeic dermatitis.
