Popis: Certain dermatologic lesions may initially present or be more commonly ascribed to the elderly. These disorders encompass a diverse array of etiologically unrelated degenerative, autoimmune, idiopathic, and neoplastic conditions that may dramatically impact the quality of life and produce significant morbidity and mortality. As the population ages, a more complete understanding of the clinical and histopathologic features unique to the geriatric dermatologic patient is essential.
