  • Child Abuse: Skin Markers and Differential Diagnosis
    527 527 REVISÃO L Violência contra a criança: indicadores dermatológicos e diagnósticos diferenciais* Child abuse: skin markers and differential diagnosis Roberta Marinho Falcão Gondim 1 Daniel Romero Muñoz 2 Valeria Petri 3 Resumo: As denúncias de abuso contra a criança têm sido frequentes e configuram grave problema de saúde pública. O tema é desconfortável para muitos médicos, seja pelo treinamento insuficiente, seja pelo desconhecimento das dimensões do problema. Uma das formas mais comuns de violência contra a criança é o abuso físico. Como órgão mais exposto e extenso, a pele é o alvo mais sujeito aos maus- tratos. Equimoses e queimaduras são os sinais mais visíveis. Médicos (pediatras, clínicos-gerais e derma- tologistas) costumam ser os primeiros profissionais a observar e reconhecer sinais de lesões não aciden- tais ou intencionais. Os dermatologistas podem auxiliar na distinção entre lesões traumáticas inten- cionais, acidentais e doenças cutâneas que mimetizam maus-tratos. Palavras-chave: Contusões; Equimose; Queimaduras; Violência doméstica; Violência sexual Abstract: Reports of child abuse have increased significantly. The matter makes most physicians uncom- fortable for two reasons: a) Little guidance or no training in recognizing the problem; b - Not under- standing its true dimension. The most common form of child violence is physical abuse. The skin is the largest and frequently the most traumatized organ. Bruises and burns are the most visible signs.

ABSTRACT Background: Pediatric dermatoses require a separate view from adult dermatoses as there are important differences in clinical presentation, treatment and prognosis. There is very little epidemiological study available on non-infectious childhood dermatoses in India. The aims of the study were to find the prevalence, clinical profile and various etiological factors associated with childhood non-infectious dermatoses and to determine the prevalence of most common non-infectious childhood dermatoses. Methods: This cross-sectional observational study conducted at tertiary care centre in Rajasthan, India. Children with age 13 years and below with clinical evidence of cutaneous disorders were studied. Parents who have not given consent for the study, acutely ill children, Children having infectious dermatoses (bacterial, fungal, viral, arthropods, parasitic and protozoal infection) were excluded from the study.

  • Neonatal and Infantile Acne
    Neonatal and infantile acne Also known as neonatal acne, neonatal cephalic pustulosis What‘s the differene etween neonatal and infantile ane? Neonatal acne affects babies in the first 3 months of life. About 20% of healthy newborn babies may develop superficial pustules mostly on the face but also on the neck and upper trunk. There are no comedones (whiteheads or blackheads) present. Neonatal acne usually resolves without treatment. Infantile acne is the development of comedones (blackheads and whiteheads) with papules and pustules and occasionally nodules and cysts that may lead to scarring. It may occur in children from a few months of age and may last till 2 years of age. It is more common in boys. What causes infantile acne? Infantile acne is thought to be a result of testosterone temporarily causing an over-activity of the ski’s oil glads. I suseptile hildre this ay stiulate the development of acne. Most children are however otherwise healthy with no hormonal problem. The acne reaction usually subsides within 2 years. What does infantile acne look like? Infantile acne presents with whiteheads, blackheads, red papules and pustules, nodules and sometimes cysts that may lead to long term scarring. It most commonly affects the cheeks, chin and forehead with less frequent involvement of the body. How is infantile acne diagnosed? The diagnosis is made clinically and investigations are not usually required. However, if older children (2 to 6 years) develop acne and other symptoms such as body odour, breast and genital development, then hormonal screening blood tests should be considered. How is infantile acne treated? Treatment is usually with topical agents such as benzoyl peroxide, retinoid cream (adapalene) or antibiotic gel (erythromycin).
