Presentation
Nevertheless, peculiar clinical presentations may require additional work-up to rule out life-threatening conditions, and dermatological consultation and histological examination are required for the final diagnosis. [unboundmedicine.com]
We report an exceedingly unusual presentation of transient neonatal pustular melanosis, suggesting the importance of a systematic diagnostic approach to allow a confident recognition of this benign condition. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
The lesions often present as, or evolve into, a pigmented macule and persist from three weeks to three months. [uthscsa.influuent.utsystem.edu]

The initial lesions usually disappear spontaneously within the first 2 weeks of life without long-term sequelae, and no treatment is required. [link.springer.com]
Clinical recognition of this disease can help physicians avoid unnecessary diagnostic testing and treatment for infectious etiologies because no specific therapy is recommended. [unboundmedicine.com]
Treatment includes topical anti-yeast agents such as nystatin, clotrimazole, and econazole. [hawaii.edu]
Prognosis
Prognosis Neonatal pustular melanosis is a completely benign condition that is not known to cause any long-term sequelae. [2] The prognosis is excellent. Postinflammatory pigmented macules resolve in 2-4 months. [emedicine.medscape.com]
Part I of this article reviews the presentation, prognosis, and treatment of the most common rashes that present during the first four weeks of life. [aafp.org]
Keywords: neonatal, transient, skin disease Introduction The majority of the dermatologic findings in neonates are physiological and transient so no treatment is required; parents can therefore be reassured about the good prognosis. [clinicaldermatology.eu]
Etiology
It is a benign and self-limited disease, and the etiology is still unknown. We present a full-term female neonate with multiple vesiculopustular and pigmented macular lesions found immediately after her birth. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Clinical recognition of this disease can help physicians avoid unnecessary diagnostic testing and treatment for infectious etiologies because no specific therapy is recommended. [unboundmedicine.com]

Epidemiology
The brown macules may persist for several months. [3, 5] Epidemiology Frequency United StatesPreviously published incidence rates for transient neonatal pustular melanosis are 0.6% in white infants and 4.4% in African American infants. [thehealthscience.com]

Prevention
Although it is rare in Taiwan and Asian countries, transient neonatal pustular melanosis should always be considered when pustulosis is found in the neonatal period to prevent the use of unnecessary antibiotics. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
