(Universidad Santiago de Cali, 2023) Aluma López, María Alexandra; Kanan, Ahmad Talat (Director); Salcedo Libreros, Luis Felipe (Codirector)
Aplasia cutis (ACC) is a congenital condition with an unusual appearance in pediatrics, especially in newborns, characterized by the absence of skin that can compromise the epidermis, dermis, and even underlying tissues such as the pericranium and meninges. ¹ A case report of a newborn clinically diagnosed with ACC is presented. According to Frieden's characteristics, it corresponds to the type 1 classification, taking into account the size and location of the lesion. The objective of this systematic review is to describe the aesthetic and functional results in a patient with ACC with conservative treatment.
