Scabies is a parasitic skin disease caused by Sarcoptes scabiei. About 200 million casesworldwide each year in people of all ages are reported.<br \/>AIM OF STUDY. Retrospective analysis of records of patients hospitalized at the Department with scabies.<br \/>MATERIALS AND METHODS. Six-year retrospective analysis of medical records of patients hospitalized with scabies at the Department of Dermatology. Gender, age of patients, comorbidities, clinical course of the\u00a0disease and treatment were considered.<br \/>RESULTS.\u00a0 In this period 193 patients were hospitalized with scabies, 96 females (49.7%) and 97 males (50.3%),\u00a0including 33 children (17%). Mean age of patients was 52.9. Skin lesions persisted 142 days in average; reoccurrence was noted in 14% of cases. Lesions were observed most often in winter (31%). The most common\u00a0manifestations were erosions (80.8%), excoriations (73.6%), papules (72.6%) and crusts (24.3%), localized mainly on trunk (92%), lower (91%) and upper (86%) limbs. 181 patients (93.8%) reported pruritus which\u00a0intensified at night in 35.8%. Previous contact with people with scabies reported 41 patients (21%). The most<br \/>common comorbidity was hypertension, diabetes mellitus and coronary heart disease. Accompanying dermatoses\u00a0were eczema, secondary superinfection and psoriasis. 85 patients (44%) were overweight or obese. Patients\u00a0received mostly topical permethrin (57%), crotamiton (29%), glicocorticosteroids (73%) and antibiotics (11%),\u00a0also oral antihistamines (91%).<br \/>CONCLUSIONS. Analysis revealed more frequent occurrence in adults with no evident sex prevalence. Greater\u00a0incidence in winter may be caused by people\u2019s tendency to spend more time indoors closer to each other at this\u00a0time of year. Pruritus, the most common subjective symptom, typically worsens at night.<\/p>\n<p>STRESZCZENIE<\/p>\n<p>WST\u0118P. \u015awierzb jest paso\u017cytnicz\u0105 chorob\u0105 sk\u00f3ry spowodowan\u0105 przez \u015bwierzbowca ludzkiego.
