		                        			 Purpose:
		                        			To characterize the patterns of demographic data, dermatologic diagnosis, and disposition regarding pediatric dermatological presentations in an emergency department (ED) at Armadale Health Service, a secondary outer metropolitan hospital in Perth, Western Australia. 
		                        		
		                        			Methods:
		                        			Retrospective cross-sectional study auditing pediatric dermatological presentations to the ED from December 2022 through November 2023. We analyzed the age group, sex, dermatologic diagnosis, Australasian Triage Scale, ED length of stay, and disposition. The age group comprised infants, preschoolers, schoolers, and adolescents. The diagnosis included anaphylaxis and angioneurotic edema (AAE), allergy-related and urticarial dermatitis (AUD), eczema and other dermatitis (EOD), infective dermatoses, and not elsewhere classified. 
		                        		
		                        			Results:
		                        			Of the 540 pediatric patients who presented to the ED with a dermatological complaint, 44.4% were girls with a median age of 4.5 years (interquartile range, 1.5-9.3) and a hospitalization rate of 7.6%. The dermatologic diagnoses consisted of AUD (34.3%), infective dermatoses (29.3%), EOD (23.3%), AAE (8.5%), and not elsewhere classified (4.6%). Most patients were triaged as an Australasian Triage Scale category 3-4, with a median ED length of stay of 2.3 hours (1.5-3.5 hours). Pairwise comparisons showed differences in the diagnoses between infants and preschoolers and between schoolers and adolescents for EOD and infective dermatoses (P < 0.001). The hospitalized patients showed a higher proportion of AAE, EOD, and infective dermatoses than those discharged (P < 0.001). Patients with AUD were hospitalized less (odds ratio, 0.06; 95% confidence interval, 0.12-0.30; compared with AAE). No dermatological emergencies, such as Stevens-Johnson syndrome, were identified. 
		                        		
		                        			Conclusion
		                        			Our findings underscore regional differences and support global efforts to reduce non-life-threatening pediatric dermatological presentations to the ED. This study may contribute to the ongoing discourse on effectively managing such presentations in EDs.

		                        			Objective:To evaluate the difference in efficacy between liposuction combined with single-port endoscopic subcutaneous adenomectomy and traditional open surgery in treating adolescent male breast development disorder,and to compare their effects on patients'anxiety levels and quality of life.Methods:A total of sixty-four patients with adolescent male mammary gland dysplasia who underwent surgery at our hospital between March 2022 and June 2023 were included in this retrospective analysis,with 28 cases in the open surgery group and 36 cases in the single-hole endoscopic group.The study compared various parameters including surgery duration,intraoperative bleeding,incision length,hospitalization duration,treatment cost,and postoperative complications,alongside collecting GAD-7,SF-36,and SCAR questionnaire scores from the pa-tients.Results:The single-port endoscopy group,in comparison to the open surgery group,showed a slightly longer operation time and higher treatment cost but had a shorter hospitalization duration and smaller incision.There was no significant difference observed between the two groups concerning intraoperative bleeding.Notably,the single-port endoscopy group exhibited more significant improvements in SCAR,SF-36,and GAD-7 scores(P<0.05).Conclusion:Com-pared with traditional open surgery,liposuction combined with single-port endoscopic subcutane-ous adenomectomy is more effective in treating adolescent gynecomastia.This approach not only offers better aesthetic outcomes but also proves effective in reducing patient anxiety and signifi-cantly enhancing their quality of life.
