Dear Colleagues, I am honored to once again serve as a Guest Editor...

Dear Colleagues,

I am honored to once again serve as a Guest Editor for Foot and Ankle Quarterly. This Fall 2020 issue focuses on dermatology, specifically plantar hyperhidrosis and plantar psoriasis, and the articles, lectures and commentaries will provide you with a detailed review of basic knowledge, diagnosis and management of these two clinical entities.

Plantar psoriasis is a topic which all podiatric physicians should be familiar with, due to its significant effect on a patient’s quality of life. This issue will delve into the latest treatments, from topical to systemic. Many of our patients also suffer from plantar hyperhidrosis, and I hope that in these pages the reader will discover new treatment options beyond topical therapy.

The condensations and commentaries in this issue will offer up-to-date, peer-reviewed information on the nuances of both of these unique conditions, ranging from biologic therapy for nail psoriasis to the details of pitted keratolysis presentations. A number of other treatments are explored in the commentaries including iontophoresis, adalimumab and lumbar sympathectomy.

I hope that this issue assists you in your clinical practice, and as always it is a pleasure to play a part in your continued education in podiatric dermatology.

Tracey C. Vlahovic, DPM
