PY - 2020 T2 - Tintinalli's Emergency Medicine: A Comprehensive Study Guide, 9e AB - This chapter describes disease processes in children for which dermatologic symptoms are diagnostic and serves as a reference for the presenting complaint of “rash” in children and young adults. Additional detailed descriptions of important skin diseases are provided in chapters in Section 20, “Dermatology,” with Chapter 248, “Initial Evaluation and Management of Skin Disorders,” specifically outlining principles of evaluation of rashes in both children and adults. Several important disease entities presenting with rashes are covered extensively elsewhere within this text (e.g., Lyme disease, Rocky Mountain spotted fever). In addition to the discussion below, Chapters in Section 20, “Dermatology,” discuss diagnosis based on anatomic location of the rash.
