Accurately identify and effectively treat skin conditions on Asian pediatric patients

The ability to identify rashes and disorders on the skin of non-Caucasian patients is now a professional obligation. Written by three leading experts from Singapore, along with top experts from around the globe, Atlas of Pediatric Dermatology in Asian Skin is the first resource dedicated to pediatric Asian patients' dermatoses.

With the largest collection of high-resolution clinical images of skin conditions on Asian patients, this bedside guide offers concise yet comprehensive synopses of clinical presentation, differential diagnoses, investigations, and treatment advice. Each diagnosis wraps up with pearls and practical tips based on the authors’ clinical experience Chapters cover:

  • Neonatal dermatoses
  • Eczematous conditions
  • Papulosquamous disorders
  • Photodermatoses
  • Inflammatory disorders of sebaceous/sweat glands
  • Bullous disorders
  • Cutaneous infections
  • Pigmentation disorders
  • Hair and nail disorders
  • And more

Online features available through AccessDermatology include videos of procedures and an appendix of additional photos of less-classical presentations of pediatric dermatology conditions and rarer diagnoses.

The clinical presentation of various dermatoses can be very different between children of Asian descent and other races, influenced not only by differences in skin phototype, genetic background, but also environmental, cultural, and ethnic practices.  

This important addition to the dermatology literature fills knowledge gaps and addresses the needs of a shifting population. Whether you are a pediatrician, dermatologist, GP, nurse, or allied health professional, Atlas of Pediatric Dermatology in Asian Skin offers everything you need to diagnose and treat Asian patients with skin conditions.
