摘要

Pediatric psychodermatology is an emerging field that is uniquely tailored to the developmental, emotional, and psychosocial needs of children with psychocutaneous conditions. This review aims to synthesize the current literature on the presentation and management of psychodermatologic conditions in children. We discuss the current treatment landscape for these conditions in the pediatric population, including pharmacologic, behavioral, and integrative interventions. Effective management of psychodermatologic conditions in children begins with early identification with developmentally sensitive screening tools. Additionally, prompt management of conditions using a practical treatment regime that addresses both cutaneous disease and psychological distress will improve outcomes for children. Further research and awareness of these conditions, when combined with continued clinician education and structural interventions, will lead to improved outcomes for this population.
