ABSTRACT

One of the notable points in ESRD patients is the multiplicity of skin manifestations which can include a wide range. It can also affect the living standards of patients due to its many types and severity. Careful study, as well as intense follow-up of these manifestations, can help physicians in timely diagnosis and their control or treatment. In this study, we tried to study the common mucocutaneous manifestations that occur in these patients. All references can be searched from PubMed. Sources of this study have been studied for clinical manifestations, pathophysiology, and treatment of skin manifestations in ESRD patients. In this study, xerosis, pruritus, pigmentation disorders, half and half nails, perforating disorder, and skin infections as well as appendageal disorders (hair and nail) in ESRD patients have been studied. These can be associated with other diseases and increase by disease severity. For better results and more help to patients with this disease, it seems that more and more comprehensive studies are needed.

Key words: End stage renal disease, ESRD, mucucutaneous, skin, dermatology, xerosis, pigmentation disorders, infection, perforating disorder, half and half nails
