title: New insights into pustular dermatoses in pediatric patients.
abstract: Pustular eruptions are common in the pediatric population. The focus of this review is to highlight entities that present with pustules, signs and symptoms of systemic inflammation, and other organ involvement. Although these conditions are rare, awareness of them should facilitate early recognition, faster evaluation (including genetic testing, if appropriate), and adequate treatment.
