From our data and literature review, phototherapy emerges as an important therapeutic option for Pytiriasis Lichenoides – effective, well tolerated by the child, and with few side effects– and should be considered a first-line therapy, especially in generalized cases. Additional data, especially from studies performed to compare other treatments with phototherapy, as well as from studies about maintenance therapies, are needed.

Abstract

From our data and literature review, phototherapy emerges as an important therapeutic option for Pytiriasis Lichenoides – effective, well tolerated by the child, and with few side effects– and should be considered a first-line therapy, especially in generalized cases. Additional data, especially from studies performed to compare other treatments with phototherapy, as well as from studies about maintenance therapies, are needed.
