  • Psychiatric and Medico-Legal Interference in Dermatology
    Rom J Leg Med [19] 277-282 [2011] DOI: 10.4323/rjlm.2011.277 © 2011 Romanian Society of Legal Medicine Pathomimesis: psychiatric and medico-legal interference in dermatology Mihaela Anca Popescu1,2*, Dumitru-Justin Diaconu1,2, Roxana Vicu1, Silvia Vasile1, Mădălina Geantă1, Maria Magdalena Mîinea1 _________________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract: Psychodermatology deals with the psychological causes of cutaneous disorders and the patient’s psychological predisposition to suffer from skin diseases. Dermatologic disorders can be purely somatic or somatic diseases with a noticeable effect on the psyche, somatic disorders with emotional trigger factors, as well as exclusively psychological illnesses. The skin is considered a “mirror of the soul” and the connection between the skin and the nervous system has been demonstrated. Between 20-40% of the patients in the dermatology wards have some type of psychiatric problem, therefore physicians must be familiar with these disorders and with the proper ways to approach the patient, in order to establish an accurate diagnosis and treatment method. The present paper describes the most commonly encountered psychodermatological disorders, both in terms of symptoms and clinical signs, and of the psychiatric and forensic ramifications. Further progress has been made in understanding and treating these diseases situated at the interface of dermatology and psychiatry. Key Words: psychodermatological disorders, self-inflicted injuries, pathomimesis athomimesis refers to any dermatological illness in which psychological factors play an important Ppart. It is estimated that effective care of at least one third of the patients in dermatology wards depends on the recognition and treatment of emotional factors [2]. Even though they both originate from the ectoderm, the skin and the nervous system are linked not only by their common origin.

  • The Need of Dermatologists, Psychiatrists and Psychologists Joint Care in Psychodermatology*
    REVIEW 63 s The need of dermatologists, psychiatrists and psychologists joint care in psychodermatology* Roberto Doglia Azambuja1 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.1590/abd1806-4841.20175493 Abstract: The mind-skin connection has been studied since the nineteenth century. The last 40 years have set the develop- ment of new research areas which allowed the clarifying of how these two dimensions interact. The diseases that involve skin and mind constitute the field of psychodermatology and require that specialists in dermatology, psychiatry and psy- chology together and integrated take part in it, since skin, nervous system and mind are simultaneously affected. This paper aims to expose how psychodermatoses are currently conceptualized and the need of integration of these three specialties for conveniently treating the patients.

TREATMENT OF SCARS INTRODUCTION TO RSM AESTHETICS 9 Over the last 100 years, life expectancy in the developed world has increased by 25-30 years. Not only do people live longer, they also feel younger. Feeling younger, it is natural to want to look younger for longer. Enormous advances in the field of aesthetic and cosmetic medicine & surgery mean that much is therapeutically possible now that, not long ago, would have existed only in the realm of science fiction. For these reasons, aesthetics has become the most rapidly expanding area of medicine, and it has grasped the imagination of the general public in an unprecedented way. CRC Press-Taylor & Francis Group, each year, make an immense contribution to the canon of cosmetic medical literature by their publication of major works in the field. In recent years, international authors, drawn from all of the relevant medical and surgical disciplines, have produced a number of fascinating, informative and authoritative texts. A selection of chapters from these recent books are presented here. I hope you will enjoy reading these taster chapters as much as I have. Here indeed science meets art.
