Clinical and histopathological aspects of the most common inflammatory non-infectious skin diseases.

Abstract

The authors present a didactic overview of the most common inflammatory non-infectious skin diseases. This overview is not exhaustive, but illustrative, especially when regarding the aspect of a systematic approach to the evaluation of skin biopsy with an initial evaluation of the morphological pattern of the inflammatory process. This will subsequently facilitate the diagnosis. Photodocumentation of typical primary skin manifestations is attached to the photomicrograph images. This enables the pathologist to make a basic clinical-pathological correlation, which is of fundamental importance in dermatopathology.
