Abstract
A 20 yr old male patient was treated topically with 8-methoxypsoralen and long-wave UV light (UV-A) for alopecia areata. He developed contact allergy to 8-methoxypsoralen after the 6th treatment (day 17), which was verified by patch testing and histopathology.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
