Abstract
FUNDAMENTOS: Numerosas condições dermatológicas podem afetar a população pediátrica. Há poucos estudos sobre a dermatologia pediátrica no Brasil. OBJETIVOS: Estudar as dermatoses pediátricas no Hospital das Clínicas do Recife, Pernambuco - Brasil. MATERIAL E MÉTODOS: Durante o período de maio de 1999 a maio de 2000, foram analisados 307 prontuários de crianças atendidas no Ambulatório de Dermatologia da Universidade Federal de Pernambuco. Foram encontrados os dados referentes a caracterização individual, procedência, motivo da consulta, diagnóstico clínico laboratorial e tratamentos previamente realizados. RESULTADOS: As dermatoses alérgicas foram as mais freqüentes (17,64%), seguidas pelas desordens pigmentares (15,54%) e infecções virais (13,44%). CONCLUSÃO: Os dados encontrados estão de acordo com a literatura. Quanto às infecções, representam um grande percentual dos casos analisados, devendo-se isso provavelmente ao baixo nível socioeconômico dos pacientes em estudo. A caracterização da epidemiologia dos problemas cutâneos em crianças deve ser uma prioridade de estudos futuros.
BACKGROUND: Numerous skin conditions can affect the pediatric population. There are few studies on Pediatric Dermatology in Brazil. OBJECTIVES: To study the pediatric skin diseases at the Hospital das Clínicas in Recife, Pernambuco State - Brazil. MATERIAL E METHODS: From May 1999 to May 2000, 307 cases of children treated at the Dermatology Clinic of the Federal University of Pernambuco were studied. Details of the patients' features, origin, reason for consultation, clinical laboratory diagnosis and previous treatment were examined. RESULTS: Allergic dermatosis was the most frequent disease (17.64%), followed by disorders of pigmentation (15.54%) and viral diseases (13.44%). CONCLUSION: This agrees with the literature. Infections represent a large percentage of cases studied and are probably due to the low socioeconomic level of the patients examined. Characterization of the epidemiology of cutaneous problems in children should be a priority in future studies.
