ABSTRACT

Aplasia Cutis Congenita is a defect characterized by localized absence of skin in one or more body areas. Small lesions health spontaneously, whereas larger lesions require medical management and/or surgery. The prognosis depends on the size, location of the defect and associated malformations. We present a case of a female newborn with isolated Aplasia Cutis Congenita and its posterior evolution to management with hydrocolloids.
