Treatment of psoriasis with 8-methoxypsoralen and sunlight.

Photochemotherapy with 8-methoxypsoralen and sunlight (PUVA-SOL), administered three times weekly, proved effective in the treatment of psoriasis. Weekend photochemotherapy (modified PUVA-SOL) also appeared useful as an adjunct to standard topical corticosteroid therapy. Careful measurement of ambient long-wave ultraviolet light (UVA) in the treatment locale and respect for the phototoxic potential of PUVA-SOL are necessary for success. The long-range toxicity of psoralen photochemotherapy remains undetermined.

Progressive nodular histiocytoma.

Extensive evaluation of the condition of a 9-year-old girl with a previously undescribed proliferative histocytic syndrome showed normal serum and tissue lipid values, which rule out the known lipid storage diseases. Clinically and histologically the case is inconsistent with any of the recognized xanthomatoses or histiocytic abnormalities.

Twenty-nail dystrophy is an idiopathic nail dystrophy that begins insidiously in early childhood. All 20 nails are uniformly affected with excessive longitudinal striations and loss of nail luster. The skin and its ectodermal derivatives are otherwise normal. Twenty-nail dystrophy is believed to be a self-limited abnormality that resolves slowly with age.

Clindamycin phosphate 1% gel in acne vulgaris.

A 12-week study compared Clindagel, a unique water-based gel formulation of clindamycin phosphate 1%, administered once daily, and Cleocin T, a slightly different gel formulation indicated for twice-daily use, in the treatment of acne vulgaris. Clindagel was safe and effective and equivalent to Cleocin T gel, albeit with a better tolerability profile. Clindagel is a viable alternative to Cleocin T gel.
