Newborn with Annular Scalp Lesions

Newborn with Annular Scalp Lesions

A 3-week-old male newborn was brought to the pediatrician with three large scalp lesions, which had appeared in the first week of life.

The lesions were annular with raised papular and pustular borders and flat, hyperkeratotic central areas. The baby’s mother, who was originally from Somalia, had similar skin lesions on her upper trunk.

What is the diagnosis?
