Photoprotection of the eye in PUVA therapy
British Journal of Dermatology, 1978Photochemotherapy with psoralens, now widely used in the therapy of psoriasis, vitiligo and mycosis fungoides, has been proposed to have the capacity, during long-term therapy, to induce ocular damage, e.g. cataract. This view is based on animal experiments (Cloud, Hakim & Griffin, 1960, 1961; Free-man & Troll, 1969) and as a consequence adequate ...

PUVA therapy of chronic actinic dermatitis
British Journal of Dermatology, 1985Four men with long-standing chronic actinic dermatitis were treated with a modified PUVA regime which initially included generalized applications of topical steroids given immediately after PUVA exposure. All patients are now free of rash, no longer need protection from UV radiation, and are being maintained on twice monthly PUVA therapy (IO J/cm2).

Die PUVA-Therapie besteht aus dem kombinierten Einsatz von Psoralenen und UVA-Licht. Zur Zeit stehen Psoralenpraparate mit verschiedenen Eigenschaften zur Verfugung. Auch der Einsatz des UVA-Lichts kann sehr unterschiedlich gehandhabt werden [1, 2, 7, 8, 13]. Da der Therapieerfolg vom praktischen Einsatz dieser Parameter abhangt, fanden wir es sinnvoll,

By common usage phototherapy has come to mean the treatment of disease by ultraviolet (UV) or visible radiation either alone or with an added chemical. In dermatology phototherapy is generally restricted to describe treatment of skin disease with UV-B (290–320 nm) and the added chemicals are topically applied coal tar or anthralin.

Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 1983
PUVA, the combination of psoralen (P) and long-wave ultraviolet radiation (UVA), is being used increasingly in the management of psoriasis and several other dermatologic disorders. While the acute toxicity of this modality, which includes erythema and blistering of the skin, can be avoided with careful monitoring of the dosimetry of the administered ...

Autografting and PUVA A Combination Therapy for Vitiligo
The Journal of Dermatologic Surgery and Oncology, 1992A novel approach to the management of vitiligo is described using a combination of epidermal autografts transplanted into the depigmented areas and psoralen‐ultraviolet‐A (PUVA) therapy. Epidermal autografts can be obtained rapidly and in large numbers using a device that combines the synergistic effects of suction and heat on the skin.
