After following patients with complex medical dermatologic disease for over fifty years, Dr. Sam Moschella, along with several colleagues, will share their medical dermatology images and discuss clinical clues for identifying complex skin conditions. This session will offer practical tips for diagnosis, appropriate evaluation, and management of patients with systemic diseases affecting the skin. It will place special emphasis on diagnostic challenges and therapeutic dilemmas encountered with these complex cases. Morphological clues for diagnosis will be underscored. Audience self-assessment will be encouraged through kodachrome review, followed by a formal discussion of the images involving audience participation. A case-based approach will be utilized to highlight relevance for the dermatology trainee or experienced clinician.
