Abstract

This case highlights how changes in socio-cultural habits, epidemiology and legislations may interfere with correct and prompt diagnosis, both in pets and humans. In animals, sarcoptic mange is an often-misdiagnosed disease because “humanization of domestic animals” leads to diagnose trendier skin pathologies, such as atopic dermatitis.
