Abstract
The entire scalp of this 1-month-old boy shows the diffuse yellow scaling of seborrheic dermatitis. Called “cradle cap” in infants, this dermatitis typically begins on the scalp during the first 3 months and may spread over the entire face. An associated stubborn diaper rash may develop in some infants.
