Solar Urticaria: A Report on 57 Cases

Abstract: In our series: 1. SU affects both sexes usually when they are under 30 years of age; 2. nearly half the patients are free of disease within 5 years; 3. in about one fourth of cases SU is associated with dermographic urticaria or displays a history of atopic dermatitis; 4. the wheals are elicited mainly by VIS or UVA; 5. SU can be prevented, at least in part, by antihistamines or by PUVA therapy.
