[Inguinal "pomade" crust of infants].
A thick crust of a very peculiar appearance (table 1) was found in the groins of babies overtreated with ointments and oils. The condition was not diagnosed before and even treated with corticosteroid ointments. The crust disappeared when the parents changed the care of the baby and avoided greasy preparations. It was easy to remove the crust by dissolving them with oil.
