[Scabies complicated by acute glomerulonephritis in children: 114 cases observed in two years in a pediatric service in Dakar].

We performed a retrospective study during 2 years in order to determine the clinical and epidemilogic characteristics of 144 cases of scabiosis with acute glomerulo-nephritis in Dakar. The 144 cases of scabiosis complicated with glomerulo-nephritis represented 56.6% of the whole 205 cases of scabiosis observed in the same period. The most important part of the cases was observed between November and January. Usually children came from poor and numerous family. The scabios lesions were mostly generalised and the infection was recent. The main features of the kidney disease were: oedemas(93.2%), high blood pressure (89.1%) and haematuria(54.70%). Cardiac and neurological involvement were the main complications. The global mortality was very low(1 case). The evolution was good in 97% of the case with complete cure.

Case report: teledermatology and epiluminescence microscopy for the diagnosis of scabies.

We wish to share images from a patient seen in our teledermatology program. Due to the absence of on-site dermatology services at the Togus, Maine, Department of Veterans Affairs, and associated community clinics for veterans in Aroostook, Bangor, Calais, and Rumford, we created a program to provide dermatologic expertise from Providence, Rhode Island. Patients referred for this service were evaluated by a nurse practitioner, who obtained a history, performed a physical examination, and captured digital images of the affected area of skin, including epiluminescence microscopic images where indicated. These data were then retrieved at the Providence (host) site and reviewed by a dermatologist, who formulated an impression and plan that was then implemented by the remote site in Maine. This approach, which involves image capture at the remote site and later review of images at the host site, is the "store-and-forward" method, which appears to be a relatively cost-effective means of providing this service from a distance.
