Tournas	Combined benzoporphyrin derivative monoacid ring photodynamic therapy and pulsed dye laser for port wine stain birthmarks	2009.0	10	.pdf	application/pdf	3782	455	65	Tournas, M.D.1,2, Jennifer Lai, M.D.1,3, Anne Truitt, M.D.1,2, Y.C. Huang, Ph.D.1, Background—Pulsed dye laser (PDL) is a commonly utilized treatment for port wine stain treatment option, combined PDT+PDL and performed a proof-of-concept preliminary clinical trial. radiant exposures over 30 J/cm2, greater purpura was noted at PDT+PDL sites as compared to PDL Starting at 75 J/cm2, improved blanching was noted at PDT+PDL sites. PDT+PDL combination therapy can achieve enhanced vascular effect without epidermal injury second subject developed a crust at the PDT+PDL site four weeks post-intervention. exposure of 75 J/cm2, improved efficacy was noted at the PDT+PDL site (Figure 2). study period for each of the test sites was as follows: Control 0.48; PDT alone −0.14; PDL Increased purpura was noted by the investigators in the PDT+PDL sites of subjects requirements for PDT alone (using BPD and yellow light) for treatment of PWS. In contrast, the PDT+PDL treatment site	./cache/work_ixdrthwuvbeb3kfp73oc6senci.pdf	./txt/work_ixdrthwuvbeb3kfp73oc6senci.txt
