Phototherapy in pediatric patients: choosing the appropriate treatment option.

Abstract:

:Phototherapeutic modalities, including narrowband-UVB, broadband-UVB, PUVA photochemotherapy, and excimer laser therapy are valuable tools that can be used for photoresponsive dermatoses in children. As a systematically safer alternative compared with internal agents, including the prebiologic and biological therapies, phototherapy should be considered a possible treatment option for children with diseases including psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, pityriasis lichenoides chronica, and vitiligo.
