The role of dermatopathology in unusual and severe cutaneous infections
The diagnosis of severe dermatological infections is usually not the pathologist’s task, but sometimes the pathological diagnosis enables the beginning of the targeted or even lifesaving therapy. An infectious disease is considered unusual when it is rare in the given climate or the causative agent normally not cause human illness, or when the disease itself is very rare. In the case of an uncommon disease with generalized skin symptoms and possibility of infectious origin skin biopsy is easily feasible, and the relatively quick and precise „bed-side” histological diagnosis could be lifesaving. Authors present such rare infectious diseases diagnosed by dermatolpathologist.
