During June 2020 Clinical Knowledge Summaries were published or updated in the following areas.

• Baker's cyst
• Corticosteroids - inhaled
• Itch in pregnancy
• Vitiligo

All of the topics have been reviewed and undergone minor restructuring. The Vitiligo topic has been significantly restructured and recommendations have been updated in line with current evidence; several areas have been moved in line with CKS layout and the Prescribing information section now directs readers to the CKS topic on Corticosteroids - topical (skin), nose, and eyes.

Action: Clinicians who see patients with any of these conditions may find the new and updated information useful when reviewing current clinical practice.
