PY - 2011 T2 - CURRENT Diagnosis & Treatment Emergency Medicine, 7e AB - To some, emergency medicine and dermatology may seem to be two of the most unrelated specialties in medicine, and in our daily practice dermatologic complaints most likely respresent a small percentage of our normal daily census but the emergency physician will encounter many patients presenting with dermatologic complaints. The astute clinician will realize that, although rare, some of these problems can be life-threatening. Some patients may even require emergency airway protection and vigorous resuscitation. This chapter reviews those special situations and discusses common and uncommon dermatologic complaints.
