  • Title: [Impetigo herpetiformis and PUVA-treatment (author's transl)].
    Author: Lohrisch I, Heilmann S, Haustein UF.
    Journal: Dermatol Monatsschr; 1979 Sep; 165(9):648-52. PubMed ID: 527745.
    Abstract:
    Report on a 20 years old pregnant woman, who fulfilled the criteria of the impetigo herpetiformis as well as later those of the pustular psoriasis Zumbusch in her clinical course. The impetigo herpetiformis is interpreted as a variant of the pustular psoriasis occurring during the pregnancy with lowered calcium-level, which increases the endogeneous eruption pressure. After negative attempts of treatment with Prednisolon, antibiotics, and later with Methotrexat an excellent therapeutic effect could be achieved by oral PUVA-treatment.
