    Observation:

    • The condition primarily affects Black male infants.
    • Previously described mainly in North American literature.

    Findings:

    • Four cases of acropustulosis of infancy were observed in London.
    • This suggests the condition is present in the UK.

    Implications:

    • Acropustulosis of infancy should be recognized in the UK.
    • It is an important differential diagnosis for infantile scabies.
