Diagnosis & Management of Skin Disorders

This book is part of the LWW India publishing program. This program is developed for the Indian market working with Indian authors who are the foremost experts in their respective fields. Our Indian authors do research and teach at the most respected Indian medical schools and academic hospitals. Covering both common and uncommon conditions this book highlights an authentic evidence-based approach for the management of skin disorders. It presents the disorders in an alphabetical order and discusses their clinical features followed by a quick exposition of the relevant aetiology and pathogenesis. It then explains clinical diagnosis with the help of photographs vividly illustrating the features of the disorder. Management of the disorder has then been lucidly explained by organising the therapeutic data into a three-layered evidence-based approach. A large number of flowcharts summarising this approach have been included to serve as quick reference points for the busy clinician.
