title: [Scabies in an adopted infant from Brazil].
abstract: The adoption of babies from third-world countries with endemic scabies by European and North American families is an ever increasing phenomenon. A brazilian baby was presented with papulopustules on both cheeks and an itchy, papular rash that developed four weeks upon arrival in Germany. Meanwhile the adoptive mother had contracted scabies.
