Summary:<p>The term “dermatologic emergency” is<br>rarely used, and a dermatologist is typically<br>not the first physician called when a<br>patient presents to the emergency department.<br>However, largely under-recognized<br>dermatoses can be life-threatening if not<br>diagnosed and treated in a timely fashion.<br><i>Buka’s Emergencies in Dermatology</i> addresses<br>the need for a concise, portable<br>reference that can be used by emergency<br>personnel, dermatologists and<br>resident-physicians.</p><p>This text, heavily illustrated with color<br>images, proves to be especially critical if a<br>community-based hospital does not have<br>a dermatology department and the responsibility<br>for initial diagnosis falls to the<br>emergency room or critical care physician.<br>While the vast majority of cutaneous<br>outbreaks are not life-threatening, those that are <br>can go unrecognized with devastating consequences.<br><i>Buka’s Emergencies in Dermatology</i> addresses<br>this concern and focuses on the<br>most critical issues in cutaneous emergencies, from<br>neonatal and pediatric emergencies,<br>to infectious emergencies and drug eruptions.</p>
