title: [Phototherapy of photodermatoses].
abstract: Paradoxical as it may seem, phototherapy, and in particular PUVA therapy, is of considerable interest in the treatment of such photodermatoses as polymorphous light eruptions, solar urticaria and remanent photosensitivity syndrome. When used rationally, with the appropriate therapeutic regimen and under close monitoring of the parameters, these treatments give very satisfactory results in preventing the occurrence of photo-induced skin eruptions.
