Recently, photodynamic therapy (PDT) which involves a photosensitizer (PS), a special drug activated by light, and light irradiation has been widely used in treating various skin diseases such as port-wine stain as well as cancers such as melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancers. PDT comprises two general steps: the introduction of PS into the body or a specific spot to be treated, and the irradiation process using a light source with a specific wavelength to excite the PS. Although PDT is gaining great attention owing to its potential as a targeted approach in the treatment of skin cancers, several limitations still exist for practical use.

Introduction: The megalencephaly capillary malformation polymicrogyria (MCAP syndrome) results from mosaic gain-of-function variants. The main clinical features are macrocephaly, somatic overgrowth, neurodevelopmental delay and brain anomalies. Alpelisib (Vijoice) is a recently FDA-approved PI3Kα-specific inhibitor for patients with PIK3CA-related overgrowth spectrum (PROS).

Introduction: The 595-nm wavelength pulsed dye laser (PDL) is well-established in the treatment of vascular lesions. In June 2023, it received FDA clearance for the treatment of port-wine birthmarks (PWB) and infantile hemangiomas (IH) in the pediatric population.
Objective: Review the evidence regarding the efficacy, safety, and implications of using PDL for management of pediatric PWB and IH.

Background: Hemoporfin-mediated photodynamic therapy (Hemoporfin-PDT) is considered a safe and effective treatment for port-wine stains (PWS). This study aims to investigate the influence of prior pulse dye laser (PDL) treatments history on the effectiveness of Hemoporfin-PDT in young children aged 1-3 years with PWS.
Methods: Data was gathered for individuals with PWS aged 1-3 years who received two or more Hemoporfin-PDT treatments.
