[What's new in pediatric dermatology?].
The literature review in paediatric dermatology for 2007 is very rich and covers the principal themes of the speciality: eczema, angiomas, genetic diseases, and juvenile and teenage systemic diseases. The role of environmental factors in infant eczema was particularly studied, as well as the problem of therapeutic adherence in the case of topical treatments. The treatment of severe forms of angioma, such as hemangioma and vascular dysplasia were also dealt with. Several publications dealt with the paediatric specificities of auto-immune diseases: dermatomyositis, scleroderma, bullous pemphigoid. Genetic diseases with a cutaneous expression were the basis for many publications. These publications deal with the genomic aspect but also the psycho-social aspect of these chronic diseases which greatly affect the patient's quality of life.
