title: PUVA therapy in lichen aureus.
abstract: Lichen aureus is one of the subtypes of a rare group of diseases, pigmented purpuric dermatoses. The natural course of the disease is slow evolution and slow resolution. Treatment is generally limited. We report a case of lichen aureus that responded dramatically to photochemotherapy (PUVA).
