Histological Responses of Cutaneous Vascular Lesions Following Photodynamic Therapy with Talaporfin Sodium: A Chicken Comb Model

Abstract

In the chicken comb model, photodynamic therapy with Talaporfin sodium effectively achieved selective destruction of the microvasculature while leaving the epidermis intact. Our results strongly suggest that photodynamic therapy with Talaporfin sodium could be a feasible method to treat dermal hypervascular lesions.
