Recent progress in the fields of pharmacology and immunology has provided us with new possibilities for treating dermatological diseases. This is a review of the most important immunosuppressive and immunostimulatory drugs. It seeks to give practical information on the treatment of various dermatoses, including autoimmundiseases, atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, vasculitis, contact dermatitis, pyodermagangreno sum, infectious diseases, and neoplasms of the skin - in particular, malignant melanoma.
Prof. Dr. Günter Burg ist Direktor der Hautklinik am Universitätsspital Zürich. Neben der Allg. Dermatologie sind Tumoren der Haut Schwerpunkte seiner wissenschaftlichen Arbeit. Zur deren Diagnostik und Therapie hat er mit seinem Team Wesentliches beigetragen.
