Abstrakt		Systemic PUVA therapy is being successfully used for the treatment of a variety of skin diseases for nearly two decades. In 1976 Fischer and Alsins published their article on PUVA bath therapy using trioxsalen (TMP) as photosensitizer for the treatment of psoriasis vulgaris. Since then PUVA bath therapy has proven itself as an effective alternative form of PUVA therapy. It has no systemic side effects and when compared with systemic PUVA therapy the same therapeutic effect requires smaller cumulative UVA doses and a smaller number of exposures. This article reviews the author's experience with PUVA bath therapy for the treatment of psoriasis vulgaris.
