We report a 76\u2010year\u2010old Japanese man with severe lichen amyloidosis on the right lower leg (itch numerical rating scale [NRS] 9) treated with a single session of fractional CO\n                    <jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>\n                    laser (AcuPulse; combination mode) without anesthesia. Clinical symptoms and adverse events were followed for 2\u2009years. Mechanical hypersensitivity was assessed using an innocuous von Frey filament (0.69 mN) at three predefined sites: the papule center (R1), papule edge (R2), and peripapular area (R3; 1.0\u2009mm from the papule edge). Ten representative papules were tested, and tactile stimulation was applied 10 times per site; response rate was defined as the percentage of stimuli evoking itch or unpleasant sensation. Serial biopsies were obtained at baseline, immediately after irradiation, and at 6\u2009months after treatment for histology (including Dylon staining) and PGP9.5 immunostaining. Pruritus resolved within 1\u2009month (NRS 0) and remained in remission for 2\u2009years without additional treatment. Touch\u2010evoked hypersensitivity, which had been prominent at the papule edge (R2) and peripapular area (R3), was no longer elicited at 1\u2009month (0% response rates at R1\u2013R3). At baseline, PGP9.5 immunostaining showed elongated intraepidermal nerve fibers in the peripapular epidermis. Immediately after irradiation, PGP9.5\u2010positive fibers appeared disrupted\/fragmented within micro\u2010ablative columns. At 6\u2009months after treatment, PGP9.5\u2010positive intraepidermal fibers were not evident in any of the examined serial sections. Dylon staining demonstrated that dermal amyloid deposits remained detectable at 6\u2009months.
