Abstract :
Aplasia cutis congenita (ACC) is a rare congenital disorder that commonly affects the scalp. In this disease, some parts of the skin with or without underlying structures were not formed at birth. The aplastic lesion always presents as a solitary lesion; however, multiple lesions also were reported. In more severe cases, deeper structures, such as the subcutaneous tissue, bone, and dura, can be affected. In this study, we report a case of ACC and its management.
