摘要
Facial angiofibromas are one of the dermatological hallmarks of tuberous sclerosis complex. Facial angiofibromas often lead to disfigurement and cosmetic concerns, which has a serious negative effect on the quality of life of the patients. There are no guidelines or consensus on the management of facial angiofibromas up to now. We report a patient with extensive facial angiofibromas treated with the combination of photodynamic therapy and ultrapulse carbon dioxide laser, achieving satisfying results. We suggest this might be a promising therapeutic option for facial angiofibromas in tuberous sclerosis complex.
