Rationalization of the Treatment Pathway of Patient Suffering From Rare Skin Disease With Telemedicine (Telemalrares)

November 19, 2018 updated by: University Hospital, Toulouse
The investigators want to demonstrate that a new organization with telemedicine could rationalize the treatment pathway of patient suffering from rare skin disease. A diagnosis and a personalised treatment pathway could be performed before the consultation in the hospital.
