“…While consensus exists regarding the role of ultraviolet (UV) light in the pathogenesis of HV, both UVA and UVB have been implicated in having a role in the underlying aetiopathogenesis 7 8. Sunlight avoidance can be achieved with clothing which affords more protection and using sunscreen on areas which remain exposed.…”

“…Predominance in males is commonly accepted [1.4], Photobiological exploration is, as a general rule, deceiving [3,5]. Indeed, the reproduction of the lesions is only sometimes possible with iterative phototests in the UVA range (wave-lengths from 320 to 390 nm).…”

“…A luz solar, particularmente a radiação UVA, tem um papel importante no desenvolvimento da doença, uma vez que as lesões caraterísticas de HV podem ser artificialmente induzidas através da exposição à radiação UVA. [41][42][43][44] Postula-se que a HV poderá corresponder a uma forma grave de EPL, na qual o fotoantigénio poderá estar localizado na membrana basal, provocando uma reação mais intensa e cicatricial. 45 A infeção por vírus Epstein Barr (EBV) também poderá estar implicada no desenvolvimento da doença, uma vez que o EBV foi detetado no infiltrado linfocítico presente nas lesões de HV em crianças e em adultos.…”
