Dermoscopy to Identify Dermal Thinning
2014
Biopsying of children is often difficult to accomplish and traumatic. Consequently, techniques that avert biopsy are welcome in children. We describe the use of handheld dermoscopy for confirmation of the diagnosis of lesions with dermal thinning, including focal dermal hypoplasia, aplasia cutis, and striae. The major advantage of this technique is rapid diagnosis in the absence of a surgical procedure.
