Abstract
Skin diseases totalize 10-30% of the pediatrics consultation in the primary care. In 2012, there were more than 74 thousand hospitalizations for dermatological problems in children on USA, that costs 379.8 million dollars. In Brazil, only a few skin diseases need obligatory notification, making it difficult to collect data about childhood skin problems. In that context, was needed to evaluate the incidence of dermatological problems in pediatrics population of the BWS’s patients, between January and December 2017. Was found a profile with majority of female child (71,5%), medium age of 12 years, with one diagnose in 69% of the cases, 2 diagnoses in 27% of the cases and only 6,2% of the child had 2 or more concomitant diagnoses. The most prominent skin problems found was acne, atopic dermatitis and vitiligo.
