Norwegian scabies in the immunocompromised patient.
Journal of the American Podiatric Medical Association 2004 November
Norwegian, or crusted, scabies can be defined as a generalized severe scabies (Sarcoptes scabiei var. hominis) infestation usually affecting the immunocompromised patient that is most commonly seen with the leukemia-lymphoma group of neoplasms.
