Cover design: eStudio Calamar, Spain Printed on acid-free paper 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 springer.com Preface For many reasons, dermatology has acquired a special status among medical specialties. As the most accessible organ, skin was from the origin of humanity frequently exposed to therapeutic interventions and manipulations by spouses, wizards, physicians, artists and scientists. With the tremendous development of science in the 19th century, dermatology benefited early from the most advanced technologies. Photography, bacteriology, and pathology proved especially efficient for studying skin diseases. The “clinical-pathological” method arose as the gold standard for describing a myriad of diseases. As a consequence, dermatology textbooks became two to three times thicker than internal medicine textbooks. As a heritage from this caricatural historical background, the definitions and boundaries of dermatological diseases are more complicated and controversial than the borders of Caucasian countries and regions. Too many physicians, rebuffed by its confusion and complexity, have a poor knowledge of dermatology, and seldom appreciate the impact and consequences of skin disease. Most of them underestimate the physiological role of the skin as an organ, as important for life as any other one. Nearly all, including some dermatologists, are skeptical regarding the very concept of “dermatological emergencies”. This concept of emergency in dermatology is nevertheless very familiar to patients. Who would not be frightened by the brutal occurrence of fever and a painful rash? Family physicians and emergency physicians are therefore frequently confronted with acute skin lesions. It matters little if they do not give an adequate diagnosis to the 90% that are benign or not clinically significant. On the other hand, they should not miss those that are dangerous, either through a direct impact on the function of the skin or as marker of a serious systemic disease. The editors of this book, all of whom have worked in hospital units specialized in lifethreatening dermatological diseases, have the common experience that diagnoses with prominent cutaneous manifestation are often delayed, resulting in less than adequate management. One major aim of this book was therefore to help general practitioners, emergency room physicians, and intensive care specialists to recognize life-threatening dermatoses and to better interpret the skin symptoms of acutely ill patients. Another important goal was to remind dermatologists that they may, like every other medical specialist, be on the front line to fight life-threatening diseases, and that they v vi Preface should not miss the occasional dangerous disease that may hide behind a common skin manifestation. The format of this book was designed to support these aims. There are often several entries for a single disease: (1) by dermatological diagnosis, (2) by presenting skin symptoms with a decisional tree emphasizing urgent diagnoses that should not be missed, and (3) by risk factors (associated diseases, immunosuppression, etc.) As any multi-authored book, this one has not avoided duplications, expression of different points of view and, occasionally, contradictions. As far as contradictions concerning matters of classification, mechanisms of action and investigation priorities, they were respected by the Editors. In settings where emergency management was concerned, we tried to solve all discordant point of views based on the best available evidence, even if often the evidence was poor.
