Childhood Genital Dermatosis
Journal Title: International Journal of Pediatric Health Care & Advancements (IJPA) - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
Genital dermatology studies the cutaneous mucosal dermatosis of the external genital organs. We carried out a descriptive study involving 100 children consulting for genital symptomatology. Different pathologies have been found in our patients. In children, regardless of age, all inflammatory or other dermatological diseases may have a genital location. In most cases, it is integrated into a generalized dermatosis, and in this case the remote lesion can make the diagnosis.
