We report six patients with a previously undescribed but characteristic pustular dermatosis confined to the scalp. All the patients were elderly women who developed chronic, extensive, pustular, crusted and occasionally eroded lesions of the scalp which produced scarring alopecia. Investigations were essentially negative and skin biopsies showed only non-specific changes of atrophy and chronic inflammation, sometimes with increased plasma cells in the infiltrate. The condition did not respond to antibiotics, but was suppressed by potent topical steroids.
