Differential diagnosis is at its most accurate and efficient when clinical presentation and histopathological features are considered in correlation with one another. With that being so, the expert team behind this innovative atlas has integrated both perspectives to provide all those working in dermatologic healthcare with a complete guide to infectious and parasitic dermatoses in their many forms. More than 600 high-quality images demonstrate the common presentation of a wide range of bacterial, viral, and fungal infections, as well those of parasitic conditions of various kinds. Accompanying these are direct and easily understood descriptions of key features and diagnostic clues, making this new text an essential quick-reference tool for trainees and practicing clinicians alike.

The Atlas of Clinical Dermatopathology: Infectious and Parasitic Dermatoses includes:

• A straightforward, pattern-based approach to dermatologic diagnosis
• Full-color illustrations and clear descriptions for easy reference
• Combined clinical and histopathological perspectives
• Handy diagnostic tips throughout

Featuring all this and more, this invaluable atlas offers a uniquely balanced, clear, and comprehensive guide to what can be a difficult process, and will be of tremendous assistance to students, dermatologists, dermatopathologists, and pathologists everywhere.

CF: Streptococcal infections initially induce erythematous patches with fragile subcorneal tiny vesicles, which easily rupture and develop into yellowish crusts.

Bullous lesions with thicker blister roof are usually due to staphylococcal infection.
