    Area of Science:

    • Dermatology
    • Parasitology
    • Clinical Medicine

    Background:

    • Scabies is a contagious skin infestation.
    • Persistent nodules are a recognized, though less common, manifestation of scabies.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To characterize the clinical presentation, demographics, and histopathology of persistent scabies nodules.
    • To determine the resolution time of these nodules.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 544 scabies patients.
    • Clinical data collection on nodule presentation, affected sites, and patient demographics.
    • Histopathological examination of nodule biopsies from 11 patients.

    Main Results:

    • 29 patients (5.33%) presented with persistent scabies nodules.
    • The condition predominantly affected young adults and children, with males being the most common demographic.
    • Scrotum and penis were the most frequently involved sites; nodules resolved within 4 months.
    • Histopathology revealed edema, vesicle formation, and inflammatory infiltrates.

    Conclusions:

    • Persistent scabies nodules are a distinct clinical entity, primarily affecting young males.
    • The nodules are histopathologically characterized by inflammation and edema.
    • Prompt resolution of nodules occurs within a few months, suggesting effective treatment responses.
