Abstract
In the publication, the authors present a clinical case of successful application of photodynamic therapy with photolon – a chlorin series photosensitizer, in a young patient with leukoplakia of the glans penis. Photolon was administered in a dose of 2 mg/kg 2.5 hours before photodynamic therapy (light dose 50 J/cm2) The treatment included 3 sessions of photoirradiation with 1 month interval. The authors note complete regression of pathological foci and long-term clinical remission (more than 6 months).
