Abstract

Progress in medical science has given a new reading to the claim that the skin could be a mirror of the pathological changes found in the internal organs. The concept that we previously promoted is furthered in this issue; namely that the greatest part of skin diseases are systemic ones. In this issue we focus on another group of diseases with systemic involvement and skin manifestations. We review such inflammatory conditions as lichen planus, autoinflammatory syndromes, and pyoderma gangrenosum focusing on their systemic involvement. We have not missed such classic examples of systemic involvement as scleroderma. In this issue we have included two infectious diseases with multi-organ involvement: Lyme disease and Herpes simplex. In contrast to our previous work, we have also addressed neoplastic diseases - namely mycosis fungoides.
