Photochemotherapy of vitiligo is an extremely common treatment. A major problem in the use of psoralens in photochemotherapy is the hazard of mutagenicity and cutaneous phototoxicity. For that reason we have used an other photosensitizing: khellin. We have treated for 6 months two groups of patients either with topycal application or via sistemic administration of khellin and subsequent exposure to solar radiation. 50-60% of all patients have partially repigmented. No side effects have been observed. Results obtained in both groups of patients are discussed.
