[Congenital candidiasis of the skin (author's transl)].

A typical case of congenital candidiasis of the skin is reported. In these babies the eruption, already widespread at birth, is initially macular to become papulo-pustular, then dries up with desquamation of the skin. The finding of Candida albicans in the amniotic fluid and in placental smears confirms that the infection was present before birth. The condition regresses after local treatment and oral nystatin, but the need for parenteral treatment is controverted.
