Resumo: Nowadays, with the recent development of biological agents and other new drugs, some of which already approved in pediatric age, it is important to contextualize the role of phototherapy in dermatology. They have an excellent and well-recognized safety profile for decades, in addition to not requiring laboratory monitoring, which is an advantage, especially in the pediatric population. They have been successfully used in this age group in the treatment of several dermatological diseases. In this article, a review is carried out about the main particularities of the use of phototherapy in pediatric age, focusing on adverse effects, the main challenges, their indications and the individualized selection of different modalities, in order to improve the clinical practice of this therapy.

Esta tem um perfil de segurança excelente e bem reconhecido desde há décadas, para além de não necessitar de monitorização laboratorial, o que constitui uma mais valia, sobretudo na população pediátrica. Tem sido utilizada com sucesso nesta faixa etária no tratamento de diversas doenças dermatológicas. Neste artigo é realizada uma revisão acerca das principais particularidades da utilização da fototerapia em idade pediátrica, focando os efeitos adversos, os principais obstáculos, as suas indicações e a seleção individualizada das diferentes modalidades, de modo a facilitar a prática clínica desta terapêutica.Sociedade Portuguesa de Dermatologia e Venereologia2020-12-19T00:00:00Zjournal articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.29021/spdv.78.4.1255oai:ojs.revista.spdv.com.pt:article/1255Journal of the Portuguese Society of Dermatology and Venereology; Vol 78 No 4 (2020): October - December; 353-359Revista da Sociedade Portuguesa de Dermatologia e Venereologia; v. 78 n. 4 (2020): Outubro - Dezembro; 353-3592182-24092182-2395reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://revista.spdv.com.pt/index.php/spdv/article/view/1255https://doi.org/10.29021/spdv.78.4.1255https://revista.spdv.com.pt/index.php/spdv/article/view/1255/868Copyright (c) 2020 Journal of the Portuguese Society of Dermatology and Venereologyhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMarcos-Pinto, AnaFernandes, SóniaCristina TapadinhasPaulo Filipe2022-10-06T12:35:16Zoai:ojs.revista.spdv.com.pt:article/1255Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T16:11:17.623495Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
