Title: Neutrophilic dermatoses: Kids are not just little people. Author: Lee GL, Chen AY. Journal: Clin Dermatol; 2017; 35(6):541-554. PubMed ID: 29191346. Abstract: Neutrophilic dermatoses are a group of inflammatory skin disorders characterized by an overactive innate immune system with dysregulation of neutrophils without underlying infectious etiology. The major representative conditions discussed are Sweet syndrome; pyoderma gangrenosum; neutrophilic eccrine hidradenitis; palmoplantar eccrine hidradenitis; subcorneal pustular dermatoses; bowel-associated dermatosis arthritis syndrome; and synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, and osteitis. We will also discuss other neutrophilic conditions present almost exclusively in the pediatric population, including congenital erosive and vesicular dermatosis with reticulated supple scarring and the recently described group of autoinflammatory diseases. The clinical characteristics, diagnostic approach, and treatment management in the pediatric and adult population are discussed.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
