The book "Pediatric Dermatopathology" from 2016, authored by Thuy L. Phung, Teresa S. Wright, Crystal Y. Pourciau, and Bruce R. Smoller, served as a reference textbook that reviewed the clinical and histopathologic features of skin disorders affecting children. It also discussed the molecular pathogenesis for each disease. The book was divided into two main sections: non-neoplastic and neoplastic skin diseases. Each chapter addressed the differential diagnoses of skin disorders with a focus on salient histologic characteristics. The text was richly illustrated with over 1000 colorful clinical and histologic photographs for each of the 400 entities discussed. The book was intended to serve as a microscope table reference for practicing pediatric pathologists, general pathologists, and dermatopathologists, as well as a reference volume for dermatologists, pediatricians, and oncologic surgeons.
