Escabiose crostosa resulta da proliferação descontrolada do ácaro da sarna humana em indivíduos que são incapazes de produzir uma resposta imunológica adequada à infestação. Crostas extensas e espessas contendo um grande número de ácaros se formam sobre a pele, particularmente nas extremidades. Como a coceira geralmente está ausente, o diagnóstico é frequentemente negligenciado. Pacientes com sarna crostosa podem servir como fonte de surtos generalizados de sarna em instituições, como hospitais e casas de repouso. | |||
