ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT The expansion of the field of pediatric dermatology has created an expansion in publications and understanding of dermatologic diseases in childhood. Pediatric dermatology is a small but

T

vibrant subspecialty in the United States, with the first pediatric dermatology board having been

RI P

offered to eligible dermatologists with pediatrics/ pediatric dermatology training since 2004, with 232 individuals nationwide (as of September 8, 2014) having become board certified by the

SC

American Board of Dermatology since that time With the ten year span since the first board

NU

examination, initially board certified pediatric dermatologists are now completing the ten year cycle of the Maintenance of Certification program. Due to the small size of the field, the majority

MA

of children are seen in general dermatology practices. Therefore, reviews on core issues of

ED

pediatric skin care are vital adjuncts to the dermatologist at large.

PT

The recent expansion of the field of pediatric dermatology also fosters more focused pediatric

CE

dermatologic education in residency programs. A recent survey of dermatology residents has shown that pediatric dermatology fellowship training improves learning and satisfaction with

AC

pediatric dermatology learning opportunities.1 There are 31 pediatric dermatology fellowship, which began participation with the match program in 2009, that are approved by the American Board of Dermatology (as of September 8, 2014) and for the 2014 year 21 fellows trained nationwide up from 13 in 2009. The presence of pediatric dermatology fellowship training has allowed the specialty to expand rapidly, with numbers expanding in the Society for Pediatric Dermatology (SPD)from about 500 in 2004 to about 1,100 in 2014. The expansion of the SPD has created a new emphasis on publication and collaborative research in pediatric dermatology, as evidenced in this second special issue on Pediatric Dermatology.

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT

In the first issue on Pediatric Dermatology, a variety of important pediatric dermatology topics

RI P

T

were reviewed including the changing landscape of vitiligo2, recent trends in drug reactions of childhood3, the use of oral contraceptives in the care of female adolescents with acne, 4 the new

SC

topic of auto-inflammatory syndromes,5 diaper dermatitis trends in the United States,6 and in

NU

depth reviews of the current management of infantile hemangiomas.7 8 Overview

MA

Part II highlights many of the advances that have come about in the understanding of pediatric dermatology through collaborative research and expanded efforts to publish within this

ED

fascinating field. Several areas that reflect the expansion of pediatric dermatology are

PT

reviewed in this issue; these include a better understanding of the epidemiology (atopic dermatitis) and comorbidities (psoriasis) of common childhood skin diseases, therapeutics of

CE

severe skin disease (atopic dermatitis and alopecia areata), better molecular understanding of

AC

pigmentary alterations of childhood (nevi and pigmentary syndromes), recently reported trends in pediatric infectious diseases including newer disease manifestations (atypical hand foot mouth disease) and a better overview of the pharmacotherapy of infectious diseases (onychomycosis and lice), adverse cutaneous reactions to vaccines, allergic contact dermatitis (nickel), ultraviolet light and it’s risks (indoor tanning legislation and the skin cancer epidemic in Hispanics) and a review of the ancient texts on an old but persistent foe, i.e. cradle cap. Highlights This issue reviews vexing issues in cutaneous inflammatory disorders of childhood. Visscher provides a rare and comprehensive review of infantile skin development which is an important

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT reference in infantile skin care. 9 In the field of atopic dermatitis Garg and Silverberg review the epidemiology of atopic dermatitis, highlighting the important recent trend in the literature that

T

supports atopic dermatitis as a systemic inflammatory illness with cutaneous features. Given the

RI P

number of cases of atopic dermatitis seen by dermatologists and pediatric dermatologists, this will be an invaluable contribution for practitioners.10 Slater and Morrell provide a beautiful

SC

overview of the systemic therapeutic options for patients with severe atopic dermatitis,

NU

highlighting the fact that severe cases need to be addressed based on reduction of systemic

MA

inflammation. 11

Bunata et al offer a review of the usage of squaric acid for alopecia areata of childhood,12 while

ED

Gutmark-Little and Shah provide a careful and thorough review of the role of obesity in pediatric psoriasis. This will be the definitive reference on this topic. 13

PT

Sheinfeld examines in detail prepubertal hidradenitis suppurativa14 while Tuchman et al review

CE

the ubiquitous entity of nickel contact dermatitis, addressing current trends of this cutaneous

AC

allergy, including the role of systemic exposure in severe disease. 15 Other sensitivities discussed include the presentation by Rosenblatt and Stein on adverse cutaneous reactions to vaccines, an important topic for both pediatric practitioners and pediatric dermatologists. 16 Feldstein et al address the current therapeutic landscape of pediatric onychomycosis, an increasingly common entity in clinical practice. 17Ventarola et al look at the fascinating manifold presentations of hand foot mouth disease seen with a focus on the recent Coxsackie serotype A6 trend.18 Wadowski et al provide a comprehensive overview of lice, an old foe with a new “pharmamentarium” of therapeutic options.19 Thambyayah etal also address an old foe, seborrheic dermatitis or cradle cap of infancy, providing the first English translation and review

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT of the ancient Siddha text on the topic and proving that pediatric skin disease has vexed people for centuries. 20

RI P

T

Genetic alterations in key regulatory genes of pigmentation can result in either genetic syndromes with pigmentary alteration or melanocytic lesions, such as nevi or melanoma.

SC

Treadwell highlights well known pigmentary syndromes and our improved understanding of the

NU

genetic basis of these diseases. 21

The trend towards increased cases of pediatric melanoma is alarming in the United States, with a

MA

2% increase per annum from 1973-2009.22 Schaffer reviews the current literature on pediatric nevi and highlights current standard of care and how to identify suspicious lesions and at risk

ED

children over normal maturational changes. This is an excellent reference work for clinical practice.23 Pan et al review the legislation surrounding youth access to tanning beds, a known

CE

PT

carcinogen that can promote melanoma risk24 Conclusions

AC

This issue should be comprehensive and enjoyable to the reader looking for new and informative pediatric dermatology literature. The contributions herein and in the last issue create a comprehensive overview of new trends and hot topics in pediatric dermatology. These reviews should provide a solid foundation for new trends in epidemiology, newer or recently emerging entities, expanded recommendations for screening and a greater understanding of common and not so common conditions for practitioners caring for children in their dermatology practice.
