  • Genital Dermatology
    GENITAL DERMATOLOGY BARRY D. GOLDMAN, M.D. 150 Broadway, Suite 1110 NEW YORK, NY 10038 E-MAIL [email protected] INTRODUCTION Genital dermatology encompasses a wide variety of lesions and skin rashes that affect the genital area. Some are found only on the genitals while other usually occur elsewhere and may take on an atypical appearance on the genitals. The genitals are covered by thin skin that is usually moist, hence the dry scaliness associated with skin rashes on other parts of the body may not be present. In addition, genital skin may be more sensitive to cleansers and medications than elsewhere, emphasizing the necessity of taking a good history. The physical examination often requires a thorough skin evaluation to determine the presence or lack of similar lesions on the body which may aid diagnosis. Discussion of genital dermatology can be divided according to morphology or location. This article divides disease entities according to etiology. The clinician must determine whether a genital eruption is related to a sexually transmitted disease, a dermatoses limited to the genitals, or part of a widespread eruption. SEXUALLY TRANSMITTED INFECTIONS AFFECTING THE GENITAL SKIN Genital warts (condyloma) have become widespread. The human papillomavirus (HPV) which causes genital warts can be found on the genitals in at least 10-15% of the population. One study of college students found a prevalence of 44% using polymerase chain reactions on cervical lavages at some point during their enrollment. Most of these infection spontaneously resolved. Only a minority of patients with HPV develop genital warts. Most genital warts are associated with low risk HPV types 6 and 11 which rarely cause cervical cancer.

This summary is intended as a source of clinical guidance. When more than one therapeutic regimen is recommended, the sequence is in alphabetical order unless the choices for therapy are prioritized based on efficacy, cost, or convenience. The recommended regimens should be used primarily; alternative regimens can be considered in instances of substantial drug allergy or other contraindications. An important component of STI treatment is partner management.

  • Lice and Scabies Introduction Hello, My Name Is Caleb Botta And
    PedsCases Podcast Scripts This is a text version of a podcast from Pedscases.com on “Lice and Scabies.” These podcasts are designed to give medical students an overview of key topics in pediatrics. The audio versions are accessible on iTunes or at www.pedcases.com/podcasts. Lice and Scabies Developed by Caleb Botta and Dr. Julie Martin for PedsCases.com. September 11, 2019. Introduction Hello, my name is Caleb Botta and welcome to PedsCases. I am a senior medical student from the Medical College of Georgia. I want to thank Dr. Julie Martin for her time in helping me create this podcast. Today I will discuss the presentation and treatment of two common parasites: lice and scabies. By the end of the podcast the learner will be able to: 1. Identify common clinical manifestations of lice and scabies infestations. 2. Apply available diagnostic methods to confirm the diagnosis. 3. List the first line treatments for lice and scabies 4. Develop an approach to the broader clinical context for when to choose which treatment strategy. Case Introduction Let’s start with a case. Sam is a nine-year-old boy who presents the last week of September for a well child visit. His only complaint is that his head has been itching for the past few days. Sam’s mom remembers that she received a letter after the first week of school saying someone in Sam’s class had been treated for lice, but after looking at his hair she has not seen any insects. They have tried using a permethrin shampoo that she bought over the counter, but it has not helped despite two uses seven days apart.

A skin examination revealed multiple brownish macules 1–2 mm in size in the hair of the thighs and genitalia and overlying particles attached near the base of the pubic hairs (Fig. 1). Dermoscopy showed moving pubic lice (Fig. 2) and nits firmly attached to the pubic hair. There was no inguinal lymphadenopathy. Hence, the diagnosis of pediculosis pubis was confirmed. The patient was treated with a 25% benzyl benzoate lotion one week apart and advised to shave the pubic hairs. Figure 1: Multiple pigmented macules and overlying particles attached After a week of treatment, there was a resolution of near the base of the pubic hairs. the genital pruritus and no lice were seen on a follow- up. A screening for sexually transmitted disease was performed and was negative. Pediculosis pubis is an infectious disease caused by the louse Pthirus pubis.
