title: [Is juvenile seborrheic dermatitis a candidiasis? Studies of a possible link with microbial infections].
abstract: Infantile seborrheic dermatitis (ISD), a disease occurring in the first months of life, is an erythematosquamous skin disease of unknown origin. This article presents results of microbial studies in 20 patients with ISD. Isolation of candida in a high percentage may indicate a primary role of this micro-organism in the etiology of this disease. It is striking that this disease often starts after disturbing the microbial colonization of the intestinal tract. Often ISD develops during the transition of breastfeeding to humanized cow milk.
