ABSTRACT
In addition to their common embryonic origin, the psychism and skin maintain privileged relations on several accounts. These relations can be found disturbed particularly among old people whose brain as well as skin have undergone the effects of senility. Ekbom syndrome or delusional parasitosis shows dermato-psychological intrications especially among the elderly. Through three clinical observations, the authors remind the clinical signs of this syndrome and discuss its psychopathological elements and its therapy. This syndrome is probably more frequent that described. To treat it adequately, it's important to situate it in nosographic context. This goes above all through a collaboration of the different involved disciplines
