Successful treatment of primary cutaneous localized amyloidosis with a combined therapy of ablative fractionated CO2 laser, topical retinoid, corticosteroids and levovitamin C: Five cases with two-year follow-up.

ABSTRACT

Primary cutaneous localized amyloidosis (PCLA) is a pruritic disorder with no radical cure. We trialed a combined therapy of ablative fractionated CO2 laser, topical retinoid, corticosteroids and levovitamin C on five patients. All patients responded with no intolerant signs. Two-year follow-up visit showed no recurrence. This might be a effective method awaiting more samples for further stronger evidence.
