DESCRIPTION

Open admission to eligible categories, no tuition or ticket

Organ transplant recipients and other immunosuppressed patients have an increased risk of skin cancer development, progression, and death from skin cancer, as well as distinct presentations of inflammatory and infectious conditions. Dermatologists are uniquely positioned to care for these patients and optimize outcomes in the context of multidisciplinary care. This session will highlight key issues in the care of immunosuppressed patients, with a focus on prevention and management of multiple skin cancers, treatment of inflammatory and infectious skin disease, and recognition and mitigation of treatment fatigue. A patient representative will speak on the challenges of living with chronic skin disease.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

1.

Summarize recommendations for screening, detection and management of multiple skin cancers in transplant and immunosuppressed patients, recognizing the role of multidisciplinary care.

2.

Prescribe topical and systemic therapy for treatment of precursor lesions and prevention of skin cancer in transplant and immunosuppressed patients.

3.

Diagnose inflammatory and infectious skin disease in transplant and immunosuppressed patients, and identify factors that contribute to treatment fatigue and discontinuation in this population.
