ABSTRACT
An atypical form of scabies is crusted or Norwegian sacbies, which is often seen in the physically or mentally handicapped, immunocompromised, and institutionalized persons. The characteristic skin lesions in this form are gross scaling and hyperkeratotic plaque, especially on the hands, feet, scalp, face, and pressure bearing areas with varying degrees of pruritus. We report a case of Norwegian scabies in a 81 year old patient with a chronic obstructive pulmonary disease using systemic steroid.
