About this Research Topic
The presence of cutaneous manifestations in infectious diseases is frequent. Cutaneous expressions of underlying disease are mostly not specific, for example, drug reactions, exanthemas, vasculitis, urticaria, or reactive dermatosis. However, in other cases, these cutaneous lesions are the main clue for the diagnosis. In this interesting clinical situation, multidisciplinary tracking among different specialties may find a precise diagnosis. Hence, both the awareness of the clinical dermatological signs in systemic infectious diseases and the coordination among the specialists are crucial, particularly in emergency or immunocompromised patients.
The aim of this Research Topic is to discuss the variety of specific cutaneous manifestations in systemic infectious diseases. These impressive clues are not frequent in clinical practice and should be considered by clinicians. They are both exceptional case reports and good material for learning, therefore these cutaneous manifestations are worth sharing in the scientific and clinical community.
The scope of this Research Topic includes exceptional cases in infectious diseases with cutaneous expression and important learning points, such as clinical infrequent manifestations, diagnosis tools, and treatments. We aim to gather case reports, original research, and review articles in which cutaneous manifestations arise as a clue, and interdisciplinary approaches to reach their diagnosis and treatment. This topic will include cutaneous manifestations associated with COVID-19, COVID-19 vaccine cutaneous reactions, cutaneous manifestations in AIDS and immunosuppressed patients, and cutaneous manifestations associated with several infectious diseases and agents such as bacterial diseases, mycobacterial infections, rickettsial infections, fungal diseases, infestations, protozoa, viral diseases, human papillomavirus manifestations, viral infections, bites, and sexually transmitted diseases. We look forward to getting your contributions and developing an amazing and hooking Research Topic.
