Vulval diseases are managed by dermatologists and by ObGyns and
while expert referral centres do exist, the majority of patients
are treated by non-specialists. These conditions are relatively
common (approximately 15% of a gynaecologist's caseload) and can be
difficult to diagnose. Gynecologic Dermatology is a practical,
highly illustrated guide written with the needs of the general
dermatologist or gynaecologist in mind. The book begins with
chapters on normal anatomy; history taking and examination of the
vulva; biopsy taking and general management options. Next,
symptom-based chapters describe presenting problems such as
pruritus, broken skin and scarring, using flowcharts to help the
physician work through to a diagnosis. Finally, chapters devoted to
key conditions (lichen sclerosus, lichen planus, etc) describe the
pathogenesis, clinical presentation, differential diagnosis and
management of the disease in question. Abundantly illustrated and
written in a practical, clinically oriented style, Gynecologic
Dermatology is an indispensable reference for non-specialists that
bridges the gap between dermatology and gynaecology. Symptom-based
section reflects how patients present in real life and provides
algorithms/flowcharts to help with diagnosis Includes second-line
treatment options to help physician when standard treatment is
unsuccessful Lavishly illustrated with over 500 photos, diagrams,
tables and boxes
