Abstract		PUVA therapy has been successfully used for treating different dermatoses for almost twenty years. In the last few years PUVA bath therapy has proven to be an alternative form of PUVA in which the psoralen is delivered highly diluted in bath water prior to UVA treatment. The indications for the use of this therapy are certain forms of psoriasis. PUVA smaller number of treatments are necessary for successful therapy. The total UVA dose is smaller and the acute and chronic side effects are less frequent and less expressed with PUVA bath therapy.
