With patients now surviving trauma, neurological diseases, and the geriatric state for longer periods, dermatologists are increasingly being called on to manage these often devastating cutaneous defects. Unrealistic goals regarding prevention and wound healing have compounded the problem, while patient awareness, government intervention, and legal entanglements make an understanding of the diagnosis and management of this dermatologic entity mandatory. This volume addresses how to both recognise and manage the condition. Beginning with the background of the disease, the book goes on to discuss the clinical features and provides a comprehensive overview of general and specific therapeutic strategies.
