Chronicles of A.I. Pospelov Moscow Society of Dermatovenerologists and Cosmetologists (MSDС was founded on October 4, 1891) Bulletin of the MSDС № 1159

On October 15, 2024, the regular, 1159^th meeting of the Moscow Society of Dermatovenerologists and Cosmetologists named after A.I. Pospelov was held.

The meeting was held in person, in which 110 people took part. 67 applications were submitted for membership in the MODV, 61 of which were from residents and employees of the V.A. Rakhmanov Clinic of Skin and Venereal Diseases.

The clinical part of the meeting presented two reports, the topics of which concerned skin sarcoidosis (clinical cases) and successful therapy of suppurative hidradenitis with secukinumab. The topics of the reports of the scientific part of the meeting were devoted to the expanded capabilities of broadband IPL light in dermatology, the evolution of views on comedogenesis in acne, as well as the real results of psoriasis therapy with netakimab. Suppurative hidradenitis is a chronic autoinflammatory skin disease, in the development of which a hereditary predisposition plays a leading role. Treatment depends on the severity of the process - from local therapy at the initial stage of the disease to the prescription of systemic antibiotics, drugs of genetic engineering biological therapy for moderate severity and surgical removal of the affected area with subsequent plastic surgery in severe cases. The topic of suppurative hidradenitis was also touched upon in the scientific part of the meeting - when discussing broadband IPL light, in particular, the effectiveness of its use in localizing the process in the armpit and groin areas. Other topics of scientific reports covered not only the problems of comedogenesis in acne, but also expanded the understanding of the role of drugs of genetic engineering biological therapy.
