      Cet ouvrage de cours synthétique traite l'ensemble des items de dermatologie du programme de DCEM2-DCEM4. Cette deuxième édition reste fidèle à l'esprit de la première édition : chaque chapitre, consacré à un item, est rédigé suivant un plan identique, original, clair et très didactique qui facilite l'apprentissage. Cette deuxième édition, entièrement refondue, est enrichie de 11 nouveaux items (items 50, 85, 94, 95, 116, 117, 124, 127, 164, 174 et 181) et de nouveaux diagnostics (maladie de Still, fasciite nécrosante, gangrène gazeuse, dermo-hypodermites d'inoculation...). L'item 330 sur le purpura y est l'objet d'un profond développement. A l'intérieur des chapitres, des flashcodes renvoient directement aux recommandations de la HAS citées ou commentées dans les ouvrages. Chaque item comprend les éléments systématiques suivants, mis à jour et enrichis : - les conférences de consensus, d'experts et les recommandations existantes ; - des schémas, des algorithmes et de l'iconographie ; - des encadrés sur les notions importantes ; - des repères permettant d'identifier les sujets déjà tombés au concours de l'internat et aux ECN depuis 1995, clairement indiqués en regard du thème tombé avec leur date et un court résumé des Annales ; - des renvois transversaux vers les autres items du programme (intra- et interdisciplinaires) ; - les « zéros » aux questions ; - une « Fiche dernier tour » qui propose un résumé de l'item pour une révision complète et rapide de celui-ci.
