Abstract :
A 17-day-old female child was referred for the evaluation of skin lesions on the scalp. She was born with cesarean section due to labor arrest. The lesions had started on the fronto-parietal region as small papules on an erythematous base on the tenth postnatal day and progressed in size and number in a week. A unilateral moderate conjunctivitis accompanied the skin lesions. Topical hydrocortisone acetate 0.5% had been given upon a presumed diagnosis of eczema by a physician five days before admission. The medical family history was not remarkable.
