Abstract
Among 24 psoriatic patients treated with PUVA [8-methoxypsoralen-long wave UV] therapy, 5 developed bullae. Direct and indirect immunofluorescence studies supported the diagnosis of bullous pemphigoid in 1 patient. In the others, the blisters were a phototoxic acral eruption.This publication has 11 references indexed in Scilit:
