Dermatologic and Gender Identity Enlightenment.

During my almost 40 years of practice, the clinical problems I found most challenging involved pediatric patients with skin rashes. I found distinguishing the common benign origins of a maculopapular, pustular, or vesicular rash from more serious etiologies difficult. In this issue of Pediatric Annals, Drs. Miriam Weinstein and Deepak Kamat and their team of authors present a series of practical articles about common clinical pediatric dermatologic problems that clinicians face on almost a daily basis. As I read each article, I learned new and important information about atopic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, “moles,” and vascular lesions.
