Photosensitivity is a rarely encountered problem in the pediatric population. It may be caused by a diverse group of primary, idiopathic photosensitivity conditions, or may reflect photoexacerbation of an existing dermatosis. In addition, there are several genodermatoses, metabolic disorders, and connective tissue disorders that can present with photosensitivity, usually in addition to other extracutaneous clinical and laboratory findings. It is important that both dermatologic and pediatric practitioners be able to recognize the various causes of photosensitivity, as well as be familiar with the associated stigmata and necessary workup, if needed, of each particular disorder. This review offers an approach to the pediatric patient who presents with photosensitivity, with emphasis on arriving at the proper diagnosis, necessary evaluations, and management strategies.
光敏性是儿科人群中罕见的问题。它可能由多种原发性、特发性光敏性疾病引起，也可能反映出现有皮肤病的光加重。此外，还有几种遗传性皮肤病、代谢紊乱和结缔组织疾病也可能出现光敏性，通常除了其他皮肤外的临床和实验室发现外。皮肤科医生和儿科医生都能够识别光敏性的各种原因，并熟悉每种特定疾病的相关特征和必要的检查是很重要的。这篇综述提供了一种针对出现光敏性的儿科患者的方法，重点是确定正确的诊断、必要的评估和管理策略。
