Eficacia y seguridad en terapia con psoralen-UVA (PUVA) tópica en psoriasis palmoplantar. Experiencia en una serie de 48 pacientes

In our experience, topical PUVA is an appropriate treatment alternative for palmoplantar psoriasis; it offers similar response rates to systemic treatments, but has a better tolerance and safety profile. Associated systemic treatment, with acitretin in most cases, improved the probability of a satisfactory response to PUVA and should be considered in patients who do not respond adequately after 8 to 10 sessions.
