ABSTRACT

El prurigo actínico es una foto-dermatosis crónica e idiopática, que afecta principalmente a la población de origen mestizo y a la piel foto-expuesta. La enfermedad se distingue por un franco polimorfismo clínico, presentando un 45% de compromiso ocular y entre un 30 a 70% de la semi-mucosa labial. Para su tratamiento se indican: fotoprotección, antihistamínicos, corticoides y talidomida, entre otros. Comunicamos dos pacientes con diagnóstico de prurigo actínico, que realizaron tratamiento con tacrolimus tópico, observándose buena respuesta clínica.


Actinic prurigo is a chronic idiopathic photo dermatosis which is more common in high-altitude living people, mainly in indigenous descendants, affecting skin exposed to light. The disease is characterized by clinical polymorphism, involving 45% ocular manifestations and between 30-70% of labial semi mucous. Treatment is based on: photo protection, antihistamines, corticosteroids, thalidomide, among others. We present two patients diagnosed with actinic prurigo who performed treatment with topical tacrolimus, showing a successful clinical response.
