Pediatric dermatology is an emerging subspecialty of dermatology. In this era of sub specialization, dermatologists as well as pediatricians who offer primary care to children must be knowledgeable in pediatric dermatological problems. Nearly 30% of case load in dermatology Out Patient Department is that of pediatric dermatological problems, hence we have pediatric dermatology clinic in JIPMER, puducherry, India and one-year fellowship program in it. In 2015, as lead Editor, I had brought out a collection of cases on pediatric dermatology. ” Puzzling Cases in PEDIATRIC DERMATOLOGY”. The enthusiasm and success it generated, motivated me to bring out volume 2 of the same. The case based scenario can be easily understood by postgraduate students, academicians as well as practitioners. Dermatology being a visual specialty, a large number of clinical photographs from Indian subcontinent have been incorporated. To increase readability, a large number of tables added. This book had been made possible through the contributions from all over India. Though COVID 19 affected the clinical services from 2020-2022, hence exposure of postgraduates to clinical material. Thus, this book will provide them with supplement of learning material based on actual cases from established clinicians.

Puzzling Cases in Stroke Vol. 2
₹1,695.00Stroke is a treatable medical emergency affecting about 15 million people every year worldwide. It is the most common cause of common cause of disability globally and is the third most common cause of death. In the present times, there are effective treatment options which if given timely will benefit the patients of stroke remarkably. Therefore, correct diagnosis of acute stroke is extremely important for the clinicians to provide appropriate treatments and to ensure prevention of acute complications, including recurrent strokes. But sometimes a typical or uncommon presentation of stroke or “stroke chameleons”can lead to diagnostic dilemma. Therefore, timely diagnosis and management may be delayed. There are time – tested strategies which when strictly followed by the Neurphysician can reduce the chances of missing the correct diagnosis. Firstly, “Listen very carefully to the patient. He is telling you the diagnosis.” Clinicians should suspect stroke when the history suggests abrupt onset of neurological symptoms. Remember, Stroke is a clinical diagnosis and imaging is providing the corroboratory evidence. Secondly, a complete and systematic neurological examination should be routinely done in patients presenting with acute neurological symptoms because this might shed light on the true nature of the problem. Finally, even the most sophisticated neuroimaging tests might miss the stroke in the early hours after the event.
