About the Book

Illustrated Synopsis of Dermatology and Sexually Transmitted Diseases by Dr. Neena Khanna has, for more than a decade, remained a favorite among undergraduate medical students, and over the past two decades has become a near-ubiquitous presence on the bookshelves of undergraduates across India. True to its title, the book delivers exactly what it promises: a crisp, well-illustrated synopsis of a large and often intimidating subject, condensed without cutting corners on the details students actually need.

The book is built around simplified line drawings and a large bank of high-quality clinical and histopathological images, giving students a visual reference for the plethora of common skin conditions they will encounter in practice, alongside the less common conditions they need to recognize for exams. The text is deliberately concise — important details are never omitted, but unnecessary detail is kept out — allowing the full spectrum of dermatology, including leprosy, and sexually transmitted diseases to be covered without overwhelming the reader. The current edition addresses the modern trend toward objective evaluation, offering a set of image-based case studies to prepare students for objective structured clinical examinations, along with hundreds of online multiple-choice questions to support postgraduate entrance exam preparation. Earlier revisions have progressively updated the book's coverage of newer diagnostic techniques and treatments, including biologics and lasers, along with the latest guidelines for managing sexually transmitted diseases, HIV infection, and leprosy. Throughout every edition, the author's underlying goal has remained the same: to make students genuinely comfortable managing common skin conditions correctly, rather than defaulting to steroids as a catch-all remedy.
