Angioma serpiginoso é um ectasia vascular rara e benigna que se apresenta clinicamente como pontos vermelhos ou arroxeados pequenos com uma configuração serpiginosa. Luzes de pulso controladas ou luz intensa pulsada (IPL), é uma fonte de luz pulsada que emite luz de alta energia com o espectro de ondas contínuas de 500 a 1200 nm. Entre as suas características estão indicações para lesões vasculares, que é o pigmento do cromóforo oxihemoglobina. Apresentamos uma paciente de 12 anos de idade com um angioma serpinginoso no braço direito que atingiu a remissão após 6 sessões de IPL.
Angioma serpiginosum is a rare and benign vascular ectasia that clinically arises as small red or purple dots, with serpiginous configuration. Controlled light pulses or intense pulsed light is the light source that emits high energy light within the continuous waves spectrum from 500nm to 1,200nm. Among its characteristics is the indication for the treatment of vascular lesions, which is the oxyhemoglobin chromophore's pigment. This paper describes a case of a 12-year-old patient with angioma serpiginosum on the right arm that receded after 6 intense pulsed light sessions.
RESUMO
Whether parapsoriasis represents an early stage of T-cell cutaneous lymphoma is still the subject of controversy. We evaluated the efficacy of phototherapy in the treatment of parapsoriasis and its relation with TCCL. Patients diagnosed with parapsoriasis and treated with phototherapy PUVA or UVB-NB were selected. Between 1 to 8 years following treatment the evolution of their disease was evaluated. In 62 patients the cure rate was 79.3% and 17.2% showed improvement of the lesions. Only two patients developed full blown T-cell cutaneous lymphoma. Phototherapy is an excellent treatment for parapsoriasis, with high cure rates, regardless of the type of phototherapy employed. Of the 62 patients under study, parapsoriasis showed no general tendency to progress to T-cell cutaneous lymphoma.
