Teledermatology in paediatrics: Health-care impact on the early treatment of infantile haemangiomas.

Introduction: Teledermatology can solve diagnostic and therapeutic problems in paediatrics, for example in infantile haemangiomas (IHs) requiring early treatment with propranolol. This study aims to assess the impact of teledermatology following its implementation in a health area of Spain, specifically analysing its effectiveness in reducing the age of first propranolol treatment for IH.

Methods: This was a descriptive study of paediatric teledermatology from 2015 to 2018, studying age, sex, diagnosis, time and mode of resolution.

Neonatal Molluscum contagiosum: five new cases and a literature review.

We describe five cases of neonatal MC and review the cases already published to discuss the possible aetiopathogenic mechanism.
