Pustular Dermatoses. Part II. Infectious, Genetic, and Transient Neonatal.

Pustular dermatoses represent a heterogeneous group of conditions frequently encountered in dermatologic practice. The differential diagnosis of pustular dermatoses is broad, encompassing an array of inflammatory, autoimmune, infectious, and genetic etiologies, each with characteristic clinical features and pathophysiology. This article, part of a continuing medical education series, dives into the evolving landscape of these conditions, delivering up-to-date insights into their epidemiology, pathogenesis, clinical presentations, diagnostic advances, and emerging management strategies. Part II will focus on infectious, genetic, and transient neonatal and infantile pustular eruptions. This continuing medical education series will help practitioners expand their differential diagnosis, highlight clues that characterize the clinical presentation of these conditions, and spotlight cutting-edge developments that are reshaping management paradigms for some of these entities.
