Abstract EN
Aplasia Cutis Congenita (ACC) is a condition characterized by congenital absence of skin, usually on the scalp.
ACC can occur as an isolated condition or in the presence of other congenital anomalies.
Here we describe a case of a 16-day-old baby girl with an isolated ACC of the scalp.
Her elder two siblings have been diagnosed with ACC with concomitant cardiac or limb anomalies.
The patient was managed conservatively until the defect has formed scar tissue 6 months later.
