Abstract
30 patients with alopecia areata were treated with 8-methoxypsoralen orally combined with whole body UVA exposure. 9 patients showed more than 60% regrowth of hair, 8 of them had recurrences of hair loss within a mean time of 7.7 months. No selecting criteria could be found prophesying good results of PUVA therapy.Entities:
