title: Mnemonics in dermatology.
abstract: An Internet search has provided many examples of mnemonics. These are readily available, so we thought of composing new mnemonics that included information about the authors who first described the disease or are associated with the disease in question. We found this a pleasurable experience, because one of the authors (C.S.) either knew or knew of many of those who were responsible for the first writing of the diseases.
