Advances in Pediatric Dermatology, An Issue of Pediatric Clinics of North America

In this issue of Pediatric Clinics of North America, guest editor Dr. Kalyani Marathe brings her considerable expertise to the topic of Advances in Pediatric Dermatology. Pediatric dermatologic conditions are prevalent worldwide, with studies indicating that up to 87% of children in developing countries are affected by various skin disorders. The high prevalence underscores the need for effective public health strategies to manage and prevent skin diseases in children globally. Empowering pediatric clinicians to treat common conditions can also improve access for patients; this issue focuses on improving access to dermatology care for children and adolescents despite workforce shortages.
