Patients were treated with NB-UVB followed the guideline of the psoriatic treatment of AAD-2010, three times weekly.\r\nRESULTS: A complete response (CR) was seen in 24 out of 29 PLC patients (82.8%) with a mean cumulative dose of 9760.5 mJ\/cm2 after a mean treatment period of 4.6 weeks (13.8 \u00c2\u00b1 7.4 exposures). Mild side effects were observed: 69% erythema minimum, 55.2% irritation related to dry skin. No severe side effects were seen during the study.
