In this case, the use of dermoscopy has attributed to precise crusted scabies diagnosis and acute pharmacological management of the patient. Early diagnosis of such diseases not only saves patients from lethal secondary infections, but also reduces the risk of a massive scabies outbreak. We also conducted a mini-review, analyzing all recent data concerning crusted scabies macroscopic, dermatoscopic, and histological images. All new information concerning the pathophysiological mechanism of crusted scabies manifestation, updated treatment options, and potential resistance to widely-used treatments are provided.
