About the department
The Department of Adult and Pediatric Dermatology, Venereology at the University Hospital Muenster offers the full range of medical services in these fields. The department is one of the largest medical facilities in Germany specializing in the treatment of congenital and acquired skin diseases. The department's doctors have in their arsenal many classic and innovative treatment methods, which provide the best therapeutic and aesthetic result. For patients with incurable diseases, the doctors develop individual therapy concepts aimed at the prevention of disease progression and improvement of the patient’s quality of life. The department is headed by Prof. Dr. med. Kerstin Steinbrink.
One of the priorities is the treatment of skin cancers (certification of the German Cancer Society). The specialization covers the treatment of malignant melanomas, squamous cell carcinoma, basal cell carcinoma, as well as the treatment of rare types of skin tumors, benign tumors (for example, warts, birthmarks and hemangiomas). The photodermatology methods are widely used in the clinical practice.

The department's specialists have managed to achieve excellent results in the treatment of chronic pruritus, and today it is a certified Center of Excellence for the treatment of this pathology. Pruritus is the most common dermatologic symptom in most dermatoses.

The department's specialists mostly have to deal with such pathologies as varicose veins, thrombosis and impaired wound healing.
