“…No further premalignant lesions or skin tumours oc curred in our group of psoriasis patients treated with oral PUVA therapy. Most im portantly, we detected no tumours in the skin of the trunk and therefore no change in the frequency distribution of the different morphological types of tumours as observed in other studies [14,20,27,29],…”

There is an increased risk of skin cancer following PUVA, shown by both US and European studies. The greater risk measured by the US studies may be at least partly explained by high UVA dose exposure and the lighter phototypes of the treated patients. The lack of prospective studies in psoriasis patients treated with NB-UVB constitutes a barrier to the robust assessment of carcinogenic risk of this phototherapy technique.

“…14 There are reports of KAs that developed in patients receiving psoralen-UVA treatment and radiation therapy. 7,8,15,16 In 1997, Hamilton et al 5 reported a case of KA developing in a split-skin graft donor site of a patient with a burn injury. Recently, a case of multiple KAs after carbon-dioxide laser resurfacing has been reported.…”
