Zusammenfassung

Die hochdosierte UVA1-Therapie („high-dose UVA1“) stellt ein neues phototherapeutisches Prinzip zur Behandlung entzündlicher Hauterkrankungen dar, das erstmals 1991 von Krutmann u. Schöpf [21] zur Behandlung der atopischen Dermatitis eingesetzt wurde. Zur hochdosierten UVA1-Therapie werden Bestrahlungsgeräte verwendet, die entweder eine Ganz- oder aber eine Teilkör-perbestrahlung mit UV-Strahlung im langwelligen UVA-Bereich, d.h. UVA1 (>340nm) (s.auch das Kap. L.Endres/R.Breit, Physikalische Grundlagen) in einem Dosisbereich bis zu 130 J/cm2 UVA1 erlauben [27]. Die therapeutische Effektivität der hochdosierten UVA1-Therapie für die atopische Dermatitis wird mittlerweile als gesichert angesehen [19]. Die Identifizierung der photoimmunologischen Wirkmechanismen, die der therapeutischen Effektivität der hochdosierten UVA1-Therapie zugrunde liegen, hat in der Folgezeit zudem zu einer Erweiterung des Indikationsspektrums geführt [18]. Diese Entwicklung deutet darauf hin, daß die hochdosierte UVA1-Therapie sich in den nächsten Jahren zu einem integralen Bestandteil der modernen photodermatologischen Therapie entwickeln könnte. So ist die anfängliche Beschränkung der Durchführung der UVA1-Therapie auf einige ausgewählte Universitäts-Hautkliniken bereits aufgehoben, d.h. die UVA1-Therapie wird nicht mehr nur von der Mehrzahl der Hautkliniken im Inland und zunehmend auch im europäischen Ausland, sondern auch von dermatologischen Praxen mit photodermatologischem Schwerpunkt angeboten.
