In the first part the pathophysiology of hyperhidrosis, rare forms of sweating and their symptoms, as well as the different topical and surgical treatments for focal hyperhidrosis are discussed. The second part deals with botulinum toxin. Besides a historic survey of the drug the reader is introduced to the pharmacological particularities and the different modalities of treatment for focal hyperhidrosis. Complications and side effects of the therapy are presented as well. The final chapter is reserved for other dermatological indications like anal fissure and wrinkles.
Differential diagnosis is at its most accurate and efficient when clinical presentation and histopathological features are considered in correlation with one another. With this being so, the expert team behind this atlas has integrated both perspectives to create an innovative and essential resource for all those involved with the diagnosis of tumors, cysts, and nevi. Almost 1,400 full-color images clearly illustrate common patterns and variants of tumorous lesions of the skin and are helpfully contextualized by concise, straightforward descriptions of key features and diagnostic clues. Whether they are aspiring or experienced practitioners, dermatologists and pathologists of all levels will...
Pathology and Genetics of Skin Tumours is the latest volume in the new WHO series on histological and genetic typing of human tumours. This publication, offers an authorative and concise reference book, providing an international standard for dermatologists, pathologists and oncologists and will serve as an indispensable guide for use in the design of studies monitoring response to therapy and clinical outcome. Diagnostic criteria, pathological features, and associated genetic alterations are described in strictly disease-oriented manner. Sections on all WHO-recognized neoplasms and their variants include ICD-O codes, incidence, age and sex distribution, location, clinical signs and symptoms, pathology, genetics, and predictive factors. The book, prepared by more than 150 authors from 20 countries, contains 648 colour photographs, clinical images and charts, amd more than 2600 references. This volume covers keratinocytic, melanocytic, appendageal, haematopoietic, soft tissue and neural tumours, as well as inherited tumour syndromes.

Cutaneous lymphoid infiltrates which are suspicious for lymphoma, are always important challenges for the general pathologist who faces them occasionally. Many times they are also difficult even for the dermatopathologist, and the most modern diagnostic weapons sometimes play a crucial role in the differential diagnosis with other non-malignant entities, as well as between the different types of lymphomas. Clinically, they sometimes simulate many other conditions, and are not always easy to be recognise by the dermatologist.
