Why?
Skin examination in pediatric neurology seeks to identify those dermatological clinical manifestations that may be associated with pediatric neurological diseases, and this occurs by several mechanisms:
- For being part of the clinical manifestations of a neurocutaneous disease genetically based (genodermatosis).
- There is a embryological base that explains the relationship between skin diseases and neurological diseases, and there is a special subtype of these diseases called neurocristopathies.
- For being part of the consequences of behavioral disorders.
- Conduct disorders leading to self-harm.
- Eating disorders that produce restrictive behaviors and as a consequence deficiency diseases with dermatological manifestations.
How?
Search for skin symptoms.
- Related to the keratinization of the skin. Neuroictiosis.
- Related to hair structure. Neurotrichosis.
- Phycomatosis (hamartomatoneoplastic diseases).
- Related to the cutaneous pigmentation
- Related to underlying vascular malformations.
- The genetic mosaics may present with skin manifestations that allow them to be identified. 19955111 {19955111:658GPMEN} 1 vancouver 50 default 4552 https://neuropediatoolkit.org/wp-content/plugins/zotpress/%7B%22status%22%3A%22success%22%2C%22updateneeded%22%3Afalse%2C%22instance%22%3Afalse%2C%22meta%22%3A%7B%22request_last%22%3A0%2C%22request_next%22%3A0%2C%22used_cache%22%3Atrue%7D%2C%22data%22%3A%5B%7B%22key%22%3A%22658GPMEN%22%2C%22library%22%3A%7B%22id%22%3A19955111%7D%2C%22meta%22%3A%7B%22creatorSummary%22%3A%22P%5Cu00e9rez%20et%20al.%22%2C%22parsedDate%22%3A%222005%22%2C%22numChildren%22%3A1%7D%2C%22bib%22%3A%22%26lt%3Bdiv%20class%3D%26quot%3Bcsl-bib-body%26quot%3B%20style%3D%26quot%3Bline-height%3A%201.35%3B%20%26quot%3B%26gt%3B%5Cn%20%20%26lt%3Bdiv%20class%3D%26quot%3Bcsl-entry%26quot%3B%20style%3D%26quot%3Bclear%3A%20left%3B%20%26quot%3B%26gt%3B%5Cn%20%20%20%20%26lt%3Bdiv%20class%3D%26quot%3Bcsl-left-margin%26quot%3B%20style%3D%26quot%3Bfloat%3A%20left%3B%20padding-right%3A%200.5em%3B%20text-align%3A%20right%3B%20width%3A%201em%3B%26quot%3B%26gt%3B1.%26lt%3B%5C%2Fdiv%26gt%3B%26lt%3Bdiv%20class%3D%26quot%3Bcsl-right-inline%26quot%3B%20style%3D%26quot%3Bmargin%3A%200%20.4em%200%201.5em%3B%26quot%3B%26gt%3BP%26%23xE9%3Brez%20AGA%2C%20De%20Lucas%20Laguna%20R%2C%20Jim%26%23xE9%3Bnez%20JQ.%20La%20piel%20como%20expresi%26%23xF3%3Bn%20de%20alteraciones%20neurol%26%23xF3%3Bgicas%20en%20el%20reci%26%23xE9%3Bn%20nacido.%20Anales%20de%20Pediatr%26%23xED%3Ba%20%5BInternet%5D.%202005%20%5Bcited%202015%20Nov%2027%5D%3B62%3A548%26%23x2013%3B63.%20Available%20from%3A%20%26lt%3Ba%20class%3D%26%23039%3Bzp-ItemURL%26%23039%3B%20href%3D%26%23039%3Bhttp%3A%5C%2F%5C%2Fwww.sciencedirect.com%5C%2Fscience%5C%2Farticle%5C%2Fpii%5C%2FS1695403305701120%26%23039%3B%26gt%3Bhttp%3A%5C%2F%5C%2Fwww.sciencedirect.com%5C%2Fscience%5C%2Farticle%5C%2Fpii%5C%2FS1695403305701120%26lt%3B%5C%2Fa%26gt%3B%26lt%3B%5C%2Fdiv%26gt%3B%5Cn%20%20%26lt%3B%5C%2Fdiv%26gt%3B%5Cn%26lt%3B%5C%2Fdiv%26gt%3B%22%2C%22data%22%3A%7B%22itemType%22%3A%22journalArticle%22%2C%22title%22%3A%22La%20piel%20como%20expresi%5Cu00f3n%20de%20alteraciones%20neurol%5Cu00f3gicas%20en%20el%20reci%5Cu00e9n%20nacido%22%2C%22creators%22%3A%5B%7B%22creatorType%22%3A%22author%22%2C%22firstName%22%3A%22A.%20Garc%5Cu00eda-Alix%22%2C%22lastName%22%3A%22P%5Cu00e9rez%22%7D%2C%7B%22creatorType%22%3A%22author%22%2C%22firstName%22%3A%22R.%22%2C%22lastName%22%3A%22De%20Lucas%20Laguna%22%7D%2C%7B%22creatorType%22%3A%22author%22%2C%22firstName%22%3A%22J.%20Quero%22%2C%22lastName%22%3A%22Jim%5Cu00e9nez%22%7D%5D%2C%22abstractNote%22%3A%22%22%2C%22date%22%3A%222005%22%2C%22section%22%3A%22%22%2C%22partNumber%22%3A%22%22%2C%22partTitle%22%3A%22%22%2C%22DOI%22%3A%2210.1157%5C%2F13075548%22%2C%22citationKey%22%3A%22%22%2C%22url%22%3A%22http%3A%5C%2F%5C%2Fwww.sciencedirect.com%5C%2Fscience%5C%2Farticle%5C%2Fpii%5C%2FS1695403305701120%22%2C%22PMID%22%3A%22%22%2C%22PMCID%22%3A%22%22%2C%22ISSN%22%3A%22%22%2C%22language%22%3A%22%22%2C%22collections%22%3A%5B%2233PLIMR2%22%2C%22XMQ9HGKB%22%5D%2C%22dateModified%22%3A%222026-05-09T07%3A15%3A43Z%22%7D%7D%5D%7D1.Pérez AGA, De Lucas Laguna R, Jiménez JQ.
