Learning Objectives

• MALATTIE INFETTIVE
  

  The aims are:

   

  • Extended knowledge of the most important Infectious Diseases viral, bacterial, fungal, protozoan on a aetiopathogenic basis

     

  • Organization of a diagnostic pathway on a clinical, instrumental, laboratory basis

     

  • Knowledge of therapeutic aspects of Infectious diseases drugs with main reference to antibiotics management

• MALATTIE CUTANEE E VENEREE
  

  The teaching of Cutaneous and Venereal Diseases aims primarily to provide the basics of anatomy and physiology of the skin, of visible mucous membranes and skin appendages, whose knowledge is essential for a correct clinical and diagnostic assessment. The student is then guided to the identification and classification of primary skin lesions and of the corresponding cutaneous disorders. In addition, the basic knowledge of the most modern diagnostic techniques allowing a rational and correct diagnosis will be provided. The histopathological correlations and the appropriate treatment options will also be considered. The course will finally focus on occupational dermatoses, skin cancer, and venereology (sexual transmitted diseases).
