PUVA therapy of chronic actinic dermatitis.

Four 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).

Dithranol-UV-A phototherapy (DUVA) for psoriasis: a treatment without dressings.

Dithranol in yellow soft paraffin with 2% salicylic acid was applied daily (increasing concentrations from 0.2% to 5%) for 1 hour to twenty consecutive patients with diffuse psoriasis. The ointment was then washed off and patients were irradiated with 10 J cm-2 of UV-A radiation since the absorption spectrum of dithranol is maximum in the UV-A waveband. The median clearance time was 14 days (range 7-39 days). No dressings were required. The patients were allowed to apply an emollient if the skin became dry.
