Background: Phototherapy may alter the morphologic features of melanocytic nevi. Dermoscopy is a non-invasive method for evaluation of skin lesions, specifically melanocytic nevi.
Aims And Objectives: This study was designed to evaluate the effects of narrowband ultraviolet B (NB-UVB) and psoralen-ultraviolet A (PUVA) therapy on the dermoscopic features of nevi.
Article Synopsis
- Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) is an autoimmune skin disorder with reported but poorly defined ocular involvement, prompting a study of 103 Iranian patients.
- Ocular involvement was found in 16.5% of patients, with conjunctivitis being the most common type (52.9%), followed by palpebral conjunctival erosion (41.2%).
- The study highlights eye irritation and redness as prevalent symptoms, concluding that ocular issues in PV patients are common and occur independently of disease activity.
