Do you mean "Seborrhoeic eczema"?
Seborrheic dermatitis (SD) is inflammation of skin with a high density of sebaceous glands (face, scalp, upper trunk). The cause is unknown, but Pityrosporum ovale, a normal skin organism, plays some role. SD occurs with increased frequency in patients with HIV and in those with certain neurologic diseases. Seborrheic dermatitis causes occasional pruritus, dandruff, and yellow, greasy scaling along the hairline and on the face. Diagnosis is clinical. Treatment is tar or other medicated shampoo and topical corticosteroids and antifungals.
