Effect of one session of ER:YAG laser ablation plus topical 5Fluorouracil on the outcome of short‐term NB‐UVB phototherapy in the treatment of non‐segmental vitiligo: a left–right comparative study

Background: NB‐UVB phototherapy is a very important modality in treating vitiligo but the treatment course usually exceeds 1 year. Skin ablation with mechanical dermabrasion with 5Fluorouracil (5FU) was introduced to treat vitiligo in 1983. This was modified replacing the mechanical dermabrasion by erbium‐YAG (ER:YAG) laser ablation and resulted in better prognosis in periungual vitiligo.
