ABSTRACT
Aplasia cutis congenita is an anomaly characterized by absence of localized areas of the integument. The most common type of aplasia cutis congenita is a circular or oval, sharply outlined ulcer 1 to 3cm in diameter on the vertex of the scalp at the level of the posterior fontanel. Two cases of aplasia cutis congenita are presented. The first case was in a male newborn infant with a localized defect on his scalp. The second case was also in a male newborn infant who had extensive symmetrical involvement of his heels. No similar conditions and associating other congenital anomalies were found in the family members of reported cases.
