    Abstract This second edition offers a fully revised and updated work on a rapidly growing field of knowledge, and was prepared by two experts whose goal was to explain the molecular basis of mosaic skin disorders in a language that is accessible for practicing physicians and medical students alike. It presents a timely and comprehensive overview of the strikingly manifold patterns and peculiarities of mosaic skin disorders in a straightforward, reader-friendly way that will help physicians to further improve genetic counseling and treatment outcomes.^

    The first two parts of the book are devoted to the mechanisms and patterns of cutaneous mosaicism, and include an explanation of genomic and epigenetic mosaicism and a description of the archetypical segmental patterns including the lines of Blaschko and the flag-like, phylloid and lateralization pattern, the non-segmental pattern of large congenital melanocytic nevi, and the sash-like arrangement as noted in a particular type of cutis tricolor. The concept of lethal mutations surviving as mosaics has now been confirmed by molecular analysis in many sporadically occurring phenotypes. The difference between monoallelic and biallelic traits has deepened our understanding of hereditary mosaics, especially of multiple benign skin tumors. Moreover, recognition of the fundamental difference between the simple segmental and the superimposed types of mosaicism is important for the purpose of genetic counseling.^

    Abstract The term neutrophilic dermatosis encompasses a heterogeneous group of diseases, often associated with an underlying internal noninfectious disease, with an overlapping histopathologic background characterized by perivascular and diffuse neutrophilic infiltrates in one or more layers of the skin; extracutaneous neutrophilic infiltrates may be associated. Neutrophilic dermatoses are not frequent in children and, when they appear in this age group, represent a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. Apart from the classic neutrophilic dermatoses such as pyoderma gangrenosum, Sweet syndrome, and Behçet disease, a neutrophilic dermatosis can be the presentation of rare genetic diseases of the innate immune system, such as autoinflammatory diseases.

    Abstract Background: The presence of a vascular, blue linear discoloration on the nasal root of infants and young children is a frequent incidental feature, rarely reported in the medical literature. It is related to the trajectory of the transverse nasal root vein (TNRV).
    Objective: To study the frequency and clinical characteristics of the vascular discoloration of the nasal root in children.
    Methods: A prospective study was performed to address the presence or absence of vascular discoloration of the nasal root in all children under 6 years of age attending a pediatric dermatology clinic from November 2022 to November 2023. Data on age and skin phototype (Fitzpatrick classification I-VI) were also collected.
    Results: Of 701 patients examined, 345 (49.2%) presented with a vascular discoloration of the nasal root. This was present in 97 of 193 (50.3%), 127 of 261 (48.7%), and 121 of 247 (49.0%) patients for the age groups 0-1, 1-3, and 3-6 years, respectively. The presence of vascular discoloration of the nasal root was more frequent in patients with lighter Fitzpatrick skin phototypes: 49 of 69 (71.0%) phototype II, 157 of 290 (54.1%) phototype III, and 137 of 337 (40.7%) phototype IV.
    Conclusions: A vascular discoloration of the nasal root is a frequent skin feature in infants and children, persisting at least until the age of 6. It does not constitute any medical problem aside from cosmetic concern and parents can be reassured of its benign nature. We propose the medical term "prominent TNRV" to describe this condition.

    Abstract We have observed a distinct phenomenon of transient oral lingual leukoplakia in infancy and report 22 healthy infants with gray-white plaques on the dorsal tongue with sparing of the tip from four medical centers in three countries. The onset of the eruption ranged from 1 week to 7 months of life and resolved in 19 patients (86%, with 3 patients lost to follow-up). None of the eight patients examined at 1 year of age had residual findings. We believe this is a common entity that can be distinguished from oral candidiasis on clinical and/or laboratory examination and name this entity "transient infantile lingual leukoplakia."

    Abstract Recent advances in medical genetics elucidated the background of diseases characterized by superficial dermal and epidermal inflammation with resultant aberrant keratosis. This led to introducing the term autoinflammatory keratinization diseases encompassing entities in which monogenic mutations cause spontaneous activation of the innate immunity and subsequent disruption of the keratinization process. Originally, autoinflammatory keratinization diseases were attributed to pathogenic variants of CARD14 (generalized pustular psoriasis with concomitant psoriasis vulgaris, palmoplantar pustulosis, type V pityriasis rubra pilaris), IL36RN (generalized pustular psoriasis without concomitant psoriasis vulgaris, impetigo herpetiformis, acrodermatitis continua of Hallopeau), NLRP1 (familial forms of keratosis lichenoides chronica), and genes of the mevalonate pathway, i.e., MVK, PMVK, MVD, and FDPS (porokeratosis). Since then, endotypes underlying novel entities matching the concept of autoinflammatory keratinization diseases have been discovered (mutations of JAK1, POMP, and EGFR). This review describes the concept and pathophysiology of autoinflammatory keratinization diseases and outlines the characteristic clinical features of the associated entities. Furthermore, a novel term for NLRP1-associated autoinflammatory disease with epithelial dyskeratosis (NADED) describing the spectrum of autoinflammatory keratinization diseases secondary to NLRP1 mutations is proposed.

    Abstract Background: The 4th generation topical corticosteroids (TCS) have demonstrated a most favorablerisk-benefit ratio. Methylprednisolone aceponate (MPA) is a non-halogenated corticosteroid with a methyl group at C6, which confers higher intrinsic activity. MPA is included in the group of potent TCS (category III/IV).
    Methods: A literature review is carried out of the clinical efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and adverse effects of MPA, especially for the treatment of atopic dermatitis (AD).
    Results: Several clinical studies support the use of MPA in infants and children, with minimal local or systemic adverse effects reported. The pharmacokinetic profile and the low rate of adverse effects of MPA are most suitable for the treatment of atopic dermatitis (AD), a chronic disease with frequent flaring that can involve extensive areas of the skin.
    Conclusions: Most patients with AD can be easily brought into control with the use of only TCS. Achieving a complete healing of eczema is key in AD, and once the skin is clinically healthy, emollients can be used according to the physician and patient preferences. Physicians should be trained in the recognition of early or subtle manifestations of active eczema that are most suitably treated with topical TCS to achieve a most rapid and satisfactory control of the disease. If the whole area with eczema is not treated, active eczema will remain and treatment will be ineffective. Insufficient use of TCS will lead to inefficiency and frustration.
