#Publication_Alert One of the most prevalent zoonotic dermatoses in tropical and subtropical areas, as well as some European nations, is Cutaneous Larva Migrans (CLM). It is brought on by several hookworm species, including Uncinaria stenocephala, Ancylostoma caninum, and Ancylostoma braziliense. Although the unique presentation might occasionally mimic other dermatoses, it is usually easy to identify. Our patient in this paper (which was published recently in Oxford Medical Case Reports, IF: 0.5) is a 32-year-old male who recently returned from a vacation in Thailand and has a large eczematous rash. Systemic steroids and antihistamines had little effect on him. Ultimately, an atypical manifestation of CLM was identified, and anthelminthic therapy proved to be an effective treatment. Reporting an unusual presentation of CLM is essential to raising awareness among medical professionals, assisting in early identification, and lowering the possibility of psychological distress among patients.

If there's one thing that can drive a provider or patient wild, it's a tricky pediatric rash. A 2019 study highlighted that up to 12% of all ED visits are for dermatology-related concerns. And of those, 50% were for rashes. Many of these visits could, of course, be avoided with effective access to high quality care. But not any care, care a patient trusts. What makes this example so special, is that the patient, specialist, and their primary provider were kept as a part of the patient care team. This is a prime example of collaborative, empathetic patient care. I feel so lucky to have a team of rockstar dermatologists who are always ready to support their colleagues, and amazing partners like Dr. Shelagh Fraser and Dr. Matt Priddy from Priority Physicians, PC who, as you can tell, prioritize excellent patient care above all else (even on a Sunday night!). Receiving an unprompted email like this is exactly what would excite any founder to open their laptop on a Monday morning. #directprimarycare #healthcare #dermatology #startup #primarycare

📑 I am excited to share that our case report titled "Cutaneous leishmaniasis mimicking psoriasis: A case report" has been published in the Clinical Case Reports journal. ❉ Scalp lesions associated with psoriasis and cutaneous leishmaniasis can be clinically indistinguishable, leading to misdiagnosis. ❉ Notably, although cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) seldom affects the scalp and palms, such atypical presentations are plausible. Therefore, in geographic areas endemic to CL, any cutaneous lesion resembling psoriasis should prompt thorough evaluation to consider CL as a plausible etiology. ❉ Read the full article: https://lnkd.in/dcY3eRxQ #dermatology #medicine #research #case_report #healthcare

Steroids, when used for various medical conditions, can have side effects. Striae, or stretch marks, are one such side effect that can occur due to prolonged or excessive use of topical or systemic steroids. These striae often present as linear, atrophic marks on the skin. Understanding the side effects of medications is crucial in providing comprehensive healthcare. Steroid-induced striae serve as a reminder for healthcare providers to carefully consider the risks and benefits of steroid use, tailoring treatment plans to individual patient needs. Monitor patients on prolonged steroid therapy for skin changes. Educate patients on the importance of following prescribed doses and duration. Consider alternative treatments when possible to minimize side effects. Sharing clinical observations fosters a collaborative learning environment within the medical community. Let's continue to engage in discussions that contribute to our collective knowledge and enhance patient care. #MedicalObservation #HealthcareInsights #ClinicalEducation #Dermatology
