ABSTRACT

Advances have been made in understanding and treating both common and rare dermatologic conditions. Atopic dermatitis benefi ts from bathing and ceramide moisturizers. Common allergic contact dermatitis may have specific presentations. Tinea capitis is effectively treated with terbinafine. Infantile hemangiomas should be treated early in the disease course and respond well to propranolol; any white sign of ulceration should be noted. Localized alopecia areata responds well to topical clobetasol, avoiding the need for intralesional injections. Topical rapamycin can be used to treat tuberous sclerosis. Further understanding of genetics will help guide pediatricians to the proper diagnosis and treatment of skin conditions.
