abstract: Pediatric dermatologic surgery is evolving as a specialty, using new techniques, medications, and devices developed for adult surgery and dermatologic surgery, as well as refining pediatric procedural techniques applicable to dermatology. The pace of evolution should be rapid, with the dermatology training on cutaneous surgery, increasing emphasis, and the growing recognition of the importance of pediatric surgery to dermatologic practice.
