F091 Granulomatous Disorders of the Adult Skin
DESCRIPTION
Come to the best session at the Academy! Granulomatous disorders represent a unique group of diseases, both noninfectious and infectious, that require clinical pathological correlation combined with a keen sense of inquiry for underlying systemic disease and pharmacologic utilization. Dermatologists need to be able to differentiate granuloma annulare, sarcoidosis, necrobiosis lipoidica, reactive granulomatous dermatitis and drug-induced granulomatous reactions, NXG, Rubella-granulomas, and more! Learn how to evaluate patients for underlying systemic diseases, and treat them with appropriate therapeutic agents.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
Review granulomatous diseases of the skin, providing a framework to recognize different clinical presentations, interpret dermatopathology, evaluate patients for systemic disease involvement, and develop an approach to treatment
Identify characteristics of and differentiate between Granuloma Annulare, Necrobiosis Lipoidica, Sarcoidosis, Reactive Granulomatous Diseases (IGD/PNGD), Necrobiotic Xanthogranuloma, Cutaneous Crohn Disease, and more
Discuss translational advances, personalized medicine, novel therapeutics, and targeted approaches to treatments
