4.1K
The first thing a clinician sees is the skin, so the examination of the skin should be part of any thorough physical examination. Most skin disorders are relatively benign, but a few, including melanomas, can be fatal if untreated. A couple of the more noticeable disorders, albinism and vitiligo, affect the appearance of the skin and its accessory organs.
Albinism
Albinism is a genetic disorder that affects (completely or partially) the coloring of skin, hair, and eyes. The defect is primarily...

Area of Science:

  • Psychodermatology
  • Psychiatry
  • Dermatology

Background:

  • A significant portion of dermatology outpatients present with psychiatric comorbidities.
  • Patients with comorbid mental illness frequently decline psychiatric referrals, necessitating dermatologist intervention.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To update current concepts, relevance, and therapeutic strategies in psychodermatology.
  • To equip dermatologists with fundamental knowledge for diagnosing and treating psychodermatologic conditions.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current literature and concepts in psychodermatology.
  • Integration of diagnostic criteria from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders 5th edition (DSM-5).

Main Results:

  • Psychiatric issues complicate skin complaints in up to one-third of dermatology outpatients.
  • Commonly associated disorders include depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive, impulse-control, and delusional disorders.

Conclusions:

  • Dermatologists must be aware of and comfortable managing psychiatric comorbidities in their patients.
  • Effective psychodermatologic diagnosis and therapy are crucial for comprehensive patient care.
