Infantile acropustulosis is characterized by recurrent intensely itchy vesiculopustular lesions. Although its etiology has not been clarified, its relationship with scabies is still under discussion. In this review, the clinical findings of a 3-month-old male patient who presented with vesiculopustular lesions starting from the soles of the feet, and a 5.5-month-old male patient who presented with erythematous papulopustular lesions unresponsive to topical steroid therapy are presented considering the literature. In cases with scabies-like lesions, making differential diagnosis with the opinion of pediatricians and dermatologists will prevent unnecessary drug use and possible drug resistance development.
