Purpose of review: Teledermatology continues to gain popularity across the world. It is crucial that dermatologists understand patient experience and satisfaction to effectively incorporate this practice into patient care. This article provides an updated review of recent findings on patient satisfaction in teledermatology.
Recent findings: Over the last 2 years, there has been an increase in studies on the patient experience of live-video teledermatology, while previous studies largely focused on store-and-forward teledermatology. This reflects the expansion of live-video teledermatology since the COVID-19 pandemic. Patients are generally very satisfied with both store-and-forward and live-video teledermatology, valuing its accessibility, quality of care, and patient-provider relationship. Decreased patient satisfaction is linked to technical difficulties, privacy concerns, lack of procedure availability, and thorough physical exams. However, teledermatology experiences are not equal across demographic groups. Access to technical support, digital literacy, age, social economic status, and type of dermatological conditions have all been found to affect patient experience.
Summary: Studies show high levels of patient satisfaction in teledermatology but limitations exist. Future efforts to improve teledermatology experiences will require reducing barriers among demographics, improving patient education, investment in technology, and collaboration among all parties involved.

Purpose of review: Pityriasis lichenoides (PL) is a spectrum of dermatological conditions involving polymorphous lesions. Natural history of the condition ranges from acute to chronic. Cases of PL following SARS-CoV-2 infection/vaccination have been reported, but not yet comprehensively reviewed. Hence, the objective of this article is to review and summarize cases of PL following SARS-CoV-2 infection/vaccination in order to guide clinicians in its diagnosis and management.
Recent findings: PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science were searched for relevant articles. Thirteen articles, consisting of 14 cases of PL following SARS-CoV-2 infection/vaccination, were identified. Males represented 64.3% of cases, and the average age of those affected was 41.4 years. The majority of cases (N = 9, 64.3%) were following SARS-CoV-2 vaccination, the most commonly implicated being Pfizer-BioNTech (n = 8/10, 80%), while four (28.6) followed infection. The overall latency period ranged from 5 days to 1 month. Treatments varied greatly. However, at the time of follow-up, 12/14 patients (85.7%) had either marked improvement or complete resolution of lesions.
Summary: This review cannot determine causality. However, a temporal association was observed with the case reports, and one case of PL followed SARS-CoV-2 infection and recurred with subsequent vaccination, suggesting an association. Nevertheless, risk of developing PL following SARS-CoV-2 infection/vaccination is likely extremely low. There is also the possibility these cases are purely coincidental. Still, clinicians should be aware of this possible etiology when diagnosing a new or exacerbated case of PL. Finally, given that the majority of patients had marked improvement or complete resolution of lesions at the time of follow-up, clinicians should provide reassurance to their affected patients.
