Poštovane kolegice i kolege,

pozivamo Vas na 4. hrvatsko-talijanski simpozij o psorijazi koji se ove godine održava u Zagrebu. Ovim ćemo simpozijem obuhvatiti najnovije spoznaje o imunopatogenezi i genetici psorijaze te suvremenim mogućnostima liječenja ove kožne bolesti koja bitno utječe na kvalitetu življenja bolesnika. Programom simpozija također ćemo obuhvatiti nove spoznaje o udruženosti psorijaze s artritisom i metaboličkim sindromom. Posebno ćemo predočiti obilježja bolesti u nekim skupinama bolesnika (djeca i trudnice) te utjecaj psorijaze na kvalitetu življenja. Uza sve što znamo o ovoj bolesti uvijek se postavlja pitanje kako najbolje pomoći bolesniku. Zbog toga je program simpozija uglavnom usmjeren na suvremene metode liječenja psorijaze ponajprije  biološkim lijekovima. Vjerujemo da će program simpozija pobuditi pozornost svih liječnika  koji se na različite načine bave problematikom psorijaze – specijalista dermatovenerologa, specijalizanata dermatovenerologije, liječnika obiteljske medicine, specijalista i specijalizanata fizikalne medicine te pedijatara, osobito onih koji se bave  pedijatrijskom dermatologijom.

Radujemo se Vašem sudjelovanju !

Dear colleagues,

We are pleased to invite you to attend 4thCroatian-Italian Symposium on Psoriasis which will be held in Zagreb on November 13th 2008. This symposium is intended to present the latest state-of-the-art in the immunopathogenesis and genetics of psoriasis, along with current therapeutic options for this cutaneous disease that has significant implications for the patient quality of life. The program of the Symposium also brings new concepts on psoriasis association with arthritis and metabolic syndrome. The disease characteristics in some specific patient populations (children and pregnant women) and the impact of psoriasis on the patient quality of life will be presented. Considering all that is known about psoriasis, there is always the same question to be answered: how to help the patient best? That is why a considerable part of the Symposium will be dedicated to the treatment of psoriasis, i.e. current therapeutic options with biologics. We do believe that the Symposium program will attract interest in all physicians involved in the management of psoriasis, e.g., dermatologists/venereologists, residents in dermatology/venereology, family physicians, physiatrists and residents in physical medicine, pediatricians, those engaged in pediatric dermatology in particular, and others.

We are looking forward for your participation!
