2 Psoriasis Tinea? No, Langerhans cell histiocytosis Inflammatory Tinea Capitis DDx Inflammatory Tinea Capitis Folliculitis: just pustules with no scale Discoid lupus: scarring skating rink alopecia with scale in hair follicle openings Alopecia areata: smooth pink-orange discrete patches with no scale

3 Tinea Capitis Rx Tinea Capitis Diagnostic Tip See the scale Do fungal culture! First line still Griseofulvin 20-25mg/kg micronized for 6-8 weeks with fatty meal. Second line agents for griseofulvin failure or intolerance are not FDA approved Lamisil 6 mg/kg/day Itraconazole 5 mg/kg/day Fluconazole 6 mg/kg/day Sethi A, Antaya R. Pediatr Infect Dis J 2006;25:643 Tinea Capitis Treatment Tip Must use systemic therapy; topical is adjunctive only If patient fails griseofulvin Check compliance Treat family members with antifungal shampoo; look for school contacts If inflammatory check history carefully for animal source (rabbits, guinea pigs, horses, puppies, kittens) Rash for a month; failed topical tolnaftate Can appear seborrheic dermatitis-like Gorani et al Pediatr Dermatol 2005;22:243. Look for tinea capitis or corporis Look for animal contact Tinea facei Dx Tip

4 Tinea facei? Tinea corporis? Neonatal lupus erythematosus Granuloma annulare Annular urticaria Tinea Corporis Diagnostic Tips All that is annular is not fungal If it scales, scrape it! If KOH negative, do fungal culture Remember pustular, vesicular and crusted plaques can also be tinea

5 Leismaniasis? Leishmaniasis?

6 Juvenile Plantar Dermatosis Tinea Pedis Therapeutic Tip Avoid potent topical steroid/antifungal combinations Greenberg et al Pediatr Dermatol 2002;19:78. If treating chronic inflammatory dermatosis such as psoriasis with topical steroids, monitor for fungal superinfection and add separate antifungal cream to regimen Address hyperhidrosis Onychomycosis: distal subungual Onychomycosis Diagnostic Tip Scrape under nail with 15 blade or curette KOH and fungal culture of scale Clip affected distal nail plate and send to pathology for special stains Onychomycosis Rx Tip Systemic terbinafine 6 mg/kg/day for 3 months Pulse itraconazole 5 mg/kg one week of every month for 3 months Fluconazole 3-6 mg/kb once weekly for 5 mos. Do baseline LFT s & repeat after 1 month. All off-label for children <18 years Sethi A, Antaya R. Pediatr Infect Dis J 2006;25:643 Onychomycosis in a 10 year old

7 Onychomycosis Rx Tip Tour de Tinea Topical therapy worth a try in young children because their nail plates are thinner Combine keratolytic with antifungal cream 40% urea cream and terbinafine cream Better topical treatments on the horizon Usually are treating parents
