  • Title: Local photochemotherapy in nodular prurigo.
    Author: Väätäinen N, Hannuksela M, Karvonen J.
    Journal: Acta Derm Venereol; 1979; 59(6):544-7. PubMed ID: 94220.
    Abstract:
    Fifteen patients with nodular prurigo were treated with a trioxsalen bath (50 mg/150 l of water) and UVA given in an ordinary PUVA cabin. Good results were observed in 8 and moderate in 7 patients in the initial phase. The result was good or excellent in 13 of the 15 patients during maintenance treatment. The good results are promising in the treatment of this chronic and otherwise therapy-resistant disease.
