Abstract
- Scabies is a common parasitic infestation in our population which can affect individuals of all ages. More than 300 million cases of scabies are reported annually. It is caused by a mite called Sarcoptes Scabiei. Common clinical manifestations include classic burrows, papules, nodules, crusts, excoriations and rarely vesicles and bullae. We report a bullous scabies case of a 60 years old man with more than 3 months history of itchy vesiculobullous lesions, mimicking bullous pemphigoid. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
