[Canine scabies in man].
Parasitic prurigo caused by scabies mites from recently acquired puppies is described in two patients and their family members. Because Sarcoptes scabiei var. canis (dog) occasionally survives in man, patients with persisting complaints despite treatment of their dogs should be treated with the topical scabicide lindane for one night.
