Article Abstract
We present a case of a three-month-old Hispanic female seen in the clinic for atopic dermatitis (AD) along with a rare incidence of associated cephalocervical lymphadenitis. The patient had a three-month history of redness, irritation, inflammation, and pruritus of the scalp, face, torso, and lymph nodes. The history and examination originally indicated seborrheic dermatitis with AD, impetigo, and folliculitis on the differential. Due to the rarity of this presentation, it is crucial to increase clinical recognition and awareness of this combination among physicians to improve patient outcomes. Recognizing this unusual presentation can lead to more accurate diagnoses and tailored treatment plans, ultimately benefiting the patient while also advancing our understanding of similar cases.
