Abstract
Plica polonica is a rare disorder of hair in which groups of hair shafts become irreversibly entangled, forming a matted, malodorous and encrusted, sticky, moist mass. Various predisposing factors are known to cause this condition. We report one such case associated with pediculosis capitis and scabies.Entities:
