Oral psoralen photochemotherapy was introduced for the treatment of psoriasis in the mid-1970s. Since then it has become an established technique, generally giving good clearance rates of affected areas, and its usefulness has extended to treatment of other conditions.

Extracorporeal photochemotherapy
Journal of Dermatological Science, 2009Although extracorporeal photochemotherapy (ECP) is reported to be effective for a wide variety of diseases, such as cutaneous T cell lymphoma, autoimmune diseases, organ graft rejection, and graft versus host disease, its mechanism of action remains unclear. The basis of extracorporeal photopheresis is the reinfusion of leukocytes previously exposed to

Dermal dendrocytes and photochemotherapy
Virchows Archiv A Pathological Anatomy and Histopathology, 1991We studied the fate of dermal dendrocytes in patients treated with psoralens and ultraviolet light by combining immunohistochemistry and computerized image analysis. Factor-XIIIa-positive dermal dendrocytes were found to be altered in these patients. When compared with controls, dermal dendrocytes were often increased in number and had an uneven size ...

Photochemotherapy in the treatment of psoriasis
British Journal of Dermatology, 1977This article describes the satisfactory clinical improvement obtained in the majority of a group of 72 patients with psoriasis of various types as a result of the oral and/or topical administration of 8-methoxypsoralen followed by long wavelength ultraviolet irradiation. The irradiation source used was that of conventional longwave UV fluorescent tubes

Photochemotherapy for Psoriasis
Archives of Dermatology, 1978To the Editor.— The article in the DecemberArchives(113:1667-1670, 1977) by Roenigk and Martin on photochemotherapy of psoriasis was most informative. The authors noted that their patients wore sunglasses that protect against ultraviolet-A (UV-A) for five hours after photochemotherapy is given in the office.

PHOTOCHEMOTHERAPY OF PSORIASIS
International Journal of Dermatology, 1978ABSTRACT: Orally administered 8‐methoxypsoralen followed by irradiation with longwave ultraviolet light (UVA, 320–400 nm, maximum 365 nm) resulted in 90–100% clearing in 24 of 26 psoriasis patients. Recurrence could be prevented by maintenance treatment. The treatment was tolerated well; no serious side effects were observed.

Phototherapy and Photochemotherapy for Psoriasis
Dermatologic Clinics, 2015Phototherapy is a first-line option for the treatment of moderate to severe psoriasis. Systematic reviews indicate near comparable efficacy of the different forms of phototherapy. Localized phototherapy can be an adjunctive treatment of recalcitrant plaques during systemic treatment of psoriasis.

Phototherapy and Photochemotherapy
1983The beneficial and adverse effects of nonionizing radiation in the treatment of certain skin diseases may involve immunologic mechanisms. The most recent and direct evidence for this comes from studies of the effects of oral psoralen photochemotherapy (psoralen plus UVA radiation, PVA), which show that immune function is affected by this treatment ...

Photochemotherapy Treatment for Psoriasis
Physical Therapy, 1981Psoriasis is a disease resulting from accelerated replication and abnormal maturation of epidermal cells.1 It has a 1 to 2 percent prevalence in the United States.1 Currently, therapy is merely suppressive. Conventional treatment for psoriasis is the Goeckerman technique, involving the use of tar and ultraviolet B (UVB) (290–320 nm).2 Classically ...
