NEW YORK (Reuters Health) Oct 02 –
Pulse-dye laser (PDL), intralesional steroids, and intralesional 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) appear to be equally effective treatments for keloidal and hypertrophic scars, but adverse reactions are more common with steroids than with the other therapies, according to a recent report.
Dr. Richard E. Fitzpatrick and Dr. Woraphong Manuskiatti, from the Dermatology Associates and Cosmetic Laser Associates of San Diego County, Inc. in La Jolla, California, assessed the skin-related outcomes of 10 patients who had keloidal or hypertrophic median sternotomy scars that were treated with four different therapies.
