Zusammenfassung
In 33 Fallberichten wurde die therapeutische oder prophylaktische Anwendung einer Betulin-Emulsion in Fertigpräparaten bei strahlen- oder chemotherapeutisch geschädigter Haut geprüft. 14 Patienten wurden nach dem Auftreten von Hautveränderungen mit Betulin-Emulsion gepflegt, weitere 19 Patienten erhielten die Emulsion in 2 verschiedenen Zubereitungen prophylaktisch. Die therapeutische Behandlung über 7 Tage reduzierte die Hautsymptome deutlich, während die prophylaktische Applikation die Haut in allen Fällen vor starken Veränderungen schützte. Damit ist die Betulin-Emulsion eine vielversprechende Möglichkeit bei der Pflege strahlen- und chemotherapeutisch geschädigter Haut.
Summary
Betulin emulsions in therapy and prophylaxis of skin alterations caused by chemotherapy and radiation. First experiences.
In 33 case studies, the therapeutic and prophylactic use of a betulin emulsion in ready-to-use preparations on skin alterations caused by chemotherapy and radiation was examined. 14 patients were treated after appearance of skin alterations and 19 patients received prophylactic application. The therapeutic application of betulin emulsion causes a down-staging of the alterations, whereas prophylactic treatment protected the skin in all cases. The present results suggest that the use of betulin emulsion is a promising treatment option of skin alterations caused by chemotherapy or radiation.
