Zusammenfassung

Die Akupunktur hat in den letzten Jahren an Bedeutung gewonnen. In einer Literaturrecherche haben die Autoren dieses Übersichtsartikels den derzeitigen Stand der Evidenz zur Akupunktur bei ausgewählten dermatologischen Krankheitsbildern und Symptomen ermittelt. Da die Studienanzahl gering ist, kann derzeit noch keine klare Aussage zur Wirksamkeit der Akupunktur bei dermatologischen Krankheitsbildern getroffen werden. Lesen Sie, bei welchen Indikationen die Akupunktur einen Therapieversuch lohnt.
