Résumé
To explore the short- and long-term effects of UVB phototherapy preceding a fractional CO This single-center, prospective, split-face/body, evaluator-blinded study included adult patients with stable vitiligo refractory to conventional treatments. Two symmetrical lesions were selected. Phototherapy was delivered with one side covered, until minimal erythema. Within 3 days, 31-month-apart sessions of laser were performed on both sides. After each laser session, phototherapy was resumed three times weekly, with all lesions uncovered, until 8 weeks after the last laser session. At baseline, at the end of treatment, and 5 years later, a Mean Improvement Score by Physician (MISP) and a patient satisfaction 10-point visual analog score (VAS) were recorded. Ten patients (8 women and 2 men) were included; their mean age was 32.9 years; phototype III was predominant; the mean duration of vitiligo was 3 years. At the end of treatment and 5 years later, scores of lesions treated with UVB-CO Exposure to UVB before CO
