ATOPIC DERMATITIS ON NUCHAL SALMON PATCH.

The article describes the case of a four-month-old baby who was presented from a few weeks hair loss in the nuchal region and an itchy dermatitis. It was diagnosed as atopic dermatitis on nuchal salmon patch with hypertrichosis signs pointing to a physiological hair loss of the newborn. The salmon patch was hidden a hair present at birth and by an accompanying onset of atopic dermatitis extending outside the angioma. The hypertrichosis seemed to be related to several factors such as salmon patch, atopic dermatitis and the topical corticosteroid therapy.
