title: [The photochemotherapy of Hailey-Hailey disease].
abstract: The results of photochemotherapy of 5 patients with chronic benign familial pemphigus are described. Standard scheme with puvalen and PUVA-22A chamber (Finland) were employed. A course of inpatient treatment consisted of 10-25 irradiation sessions followed by outpatient maintenance photochemotherapy (once a week or two). Erosions and fissures started epithelializing after 8-12 irradiation sessions. A remission of up to 19 months was achieved in all the patients; it was more manifest and durable than after treatment with other schemes.
