Summary : A five year-old female orphan, living in an SOS Village, had been treated unsuccessfully for tinea amiantacea with tars and salicilic acid shampoos for two years. She presented with powdery grey hair and large adherent scales surrounding the hair shafts without alopecia (Fig. 1). Wood's lamp examination revealed a yellow fluorescence. She had no skin lesions and was a healthy child. Scales and altered hairs were collected. |
