The diagnosis of atopic dermatitis (AD) is primarily based on clinical assessment, as there are no specific tests for it. Given the frequency with which this condition is encountered, it is crucial that managing patients with AD is as straightforward as possible for doctors. To support dermatologists with easy-to-use, clinically validated tools that benefit patients and enhance care, we have gathered all relevant tools into the Atopic Dermatitis Corner. Right now, it's available in Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Croatia, Romania, Slovenia, and Slovakia. Tools like SCORAD, EASI, and DLQI are designed to assist dermstologists in everyday patient care.

#Dermatology #Research #dermacases. Recently published a clinical and dermoscopy of under-reported case of cydnidae pigmentation on palms resembling black-ink stains. This may not be a rare clinical scenario but goes underreported, so the sudden appearance of black-ink-like marks on the palms or face should alert us to the possibility of pigmentation caused by a substance secreted by cydnidae bugs. The treatment only provides reassurance and hand-holding for the patient throughout the process of pigmentation fading on its own over a period of one to two weeks. Therefore, vigilant history taking and high index of suspicion is required. Superficial nature of pigmentation on dermoscopy aids in the diagnosis of this condition.
