Description
IMPORTED SKIN DISEASES was written and illustrated for the health professional in order to help in the diagnosis of diseases acquired
in another, often tropical, environment and subsequent patient management. Patients with exotic (non-endemic) skin diseases have become
more frequent in recent years. The authors are internationally recognised experts in their field. This book covers a wide spectrum of
imported skin diseases, the majority infectious in nature. These diseases are found not only among Western travellers, but also among
immigrant minority groups who may regularly visit their relatives in their countries of origin. Sexually transmitted infections as well
as dermatological diseases are discussed. Symptoms of potentially life-threatening systemic infections are described. There is also a
chapter on aquatic skin disorders.
Audience
Dermatologists (in training), tropical physicians, military physicians and others who work with skin diseases
