Skin diseases with systemic implications
The research activity of our Dermatology focuses mainly on frequently encountered immune-mediated skin diseases such as psoriasis, atopic dermatitis and urticaria and skin diseases of an autoimmune nature such as pemphigus, pemphigoid, scleroderma, lupus, dermatomyositis, vasculitis, pyoderma gangrenosum and other neutrophilic dermatoses. Another condition once considered rare but now considered frequently encountered on which Dermatology focuses its efforts is hydrosadenitis suppurativa. Also being researched are skin neoplasms such as melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancer, the latter of which are commonly observed, as well as cutaneous lymphomas and histiocytosis, which represent rare forms instead. Several national and international clinical trials are active on all the above-mentioned diseases.
