Severe skin pain after PUVA treatment.

Severe skin pain lasting one or two months occurred in 8 of 210 patients treated with PUVA. The pain started 4--8 weeks after the initial dose, mostly about one week after discontinuation of the treatment. It was a prickling, burning pain, usually coming in bouts and confined to limited areas "deep under the skin". In some respects the pain was related to itching, but the patients could easily distinguish between the two sensations. A variety of drugs was tried, but none had any noteworthy effect on this peculiar pain.

5-S-cysteinyldopa excretion after treatment with 8-methoxypsoralen and UVA light.

The excretion of the specific melanocytic metabolite 5-S-cysteinyldopa was studied in patients with psoriasis treated by 8-methoxypsoralen and UVA light. A pronounced increase was found after only 2 days treatment, although no increase in pigmentation could yet be observed. Peak values for urinary 5-S-cysteinyldopa were noted after 1 or 2 weeks treatment. Increase in pigmentation persisted after the excretion maxima for 5-S-cysteinyldopa.

Contact dermatitis to topical corticosteroids does occur, although infrequently. Patch testing to the available steroids is recommended for patients with long-standing dermatoses which have responded poorly to topical steroids.
