Erosive Pustular Dermatosis of the Scalp Treated with 0.1% Mometasone Furoate Cream

Erosive pustular dermatosis of the scalp (EPD) was a rare skin condition characterized by sterile pustules and crusted erosions, often following physical or chemical trauma. In a reported case, a 49-year-old man presented with a 2-week history of erythema, multiple pustules, and erosions confined to the scalp. Diagnosis was based on anamnesis, clinical appearance, and histopathological analysis. The skin lesions showed a positive response to treatment with topical 0.1% mometasone furoate cream applied once daily.
