Abstract
- The characteristic skin lesions in scabies are pruritic papules and burrows on the fingerweb, wrists, genital and flexural areas. However, the skin lesions are variable, such as, nodular, crusted, erosive and bullous lesions. We report a case of bullous scabies on the whole body surface in a patient with a brain tumor. The histological findings of the case showed intraepidermal blisters and scabies mites within the stratum corneum.
