Commentary is provided on the emerging role of viruses in transplant dermatology, the management of skin disease secondary to transplant medication, sunscreen use in transplant recipients, the role of revision of immunosuppression, and advances in photodynamic therapy. The latest staging and management criteria for high-risk squamous cell carcinoma and the implications for clinical practice are then analyzed. Finally, the management of other cutaneous malignancies is discussed, covering malignant melanoma, Merkel cell carcinoma, and rarer tumors that also behave aggressively and require special consideration in solid organ transplant patients. Each particular advance is addressed in an individual chapter by leaders in the field. The book both expands current knowledge and complements previous textbooks on the subject.DermatologyTransplantation of organs, tissues, etcImmunologyDermatologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H1900XTransplant Surgeryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H59117Immunologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B14000Dermatology.Transplantation of organs, tissues, etc.Immunology.Dermatology.Transplant Surgery.Immunology.610616.5616079617954Zwald Fionaedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBrown Marc Dedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910300204603321Advances in Transplant Dermatology1759368UNINA
