Preface
Welcome to the second edition of The Handbook of Dermatology: A Practical Manual, a pocket guide designed for practicing dermatologists, dermatology residents, medical students, nurses, health care providers, and physicians in other fields who may be interested in dermatology.
New to second edition: We appreciate thoughtful feedback from our readers resulting in extensive revisions including the following: Part 1 sections were reorganized so that information could be found more quickly and intuitively; many sections were added including Workup Quick Reference Table, Melasma Workup and Management Algorithm, Propranolol, Contact Dermatitis, and Dermatologic Signs and Dermoscopy; all sections were updated to reflect new gene discoveries and other interval advancements. Part 2 includes updated fillers and toxins, UV and sunscreen updates, peeling agents, and a venous disease section. In Part 3, Drugs and Therapies was extensively updated.
Our first edition was created and edited by graduating residentsat Washington University School of Medicine, Division of Dermatology. Our handbook started as an inhouse resident handbook. Our goalwas to compile and consolidateneedtoknow dermatologic information for daily use in both patient care and resident and fellow education. As such, it represents the indispensable pocketsized quick referencewhich wehad wantedduring our training and which we now use in our practices.
Currently, there are multiple indepth dermatology textbooks and atlases, most of which are too bulky to be carried around in the clinic. Our manualconcisely presents data inoutline, bulletpoint, and tableformats such that information is manageable and easily retrievable. The compact design is lightweight, allowinginformation to be accessible in seconds during clinics, facilitating patient care. We have tried to balance space limitations with the need to cover a subject in sufficient detail.
Our manual has three mainsections medical dermatology, surgical dermatology, and pharmacology/treatment. Each section is designed to give the reader concise information for patient care. The content is uptodate, comprehensive yetsuccinct. In addition to core material, we sought toconsolidate the information which we found ourselves most often looking up, which our attendings most often quizzed us on, and which were most emphasized on the dermatology board exam. The manual consolidates the essential algorithms, protocols, guidelines, staging, and scoring systems of dermatology. Each section is designed for easy reference, with tabular and graphic information throughout. The diseases covered are those which we most often encountered in clinic, on call, during morning conferences, and on board exams.
