Comparison of Electrodessication, Potassium Titanyl Phosphate (KTP) Laser and Pulsed Dye Laser for Treatment of Cherry Angiomata

Northwestern University·interventional·Posted Nov 17, 2008·Updated Mar 6, 2015

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Electrodessication, Pulsed dye laser (PDL), and 1 other intervention for Cherry Angioma. Completed, enrolled 15 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

The primary objective of this study is to determine whether laser treatments over 6 weeks using the pulsed dye laser system or the potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) laser are effective in patients with cherry angiomas as observed by a physician provider and the subject. The investigators hypothesize that the two laser treatments will be an effective tool for treating cherry angiomas. The investigators aim to compare these modalities to electrodessication, as all three modalities are considered the current standard of care. Electrodessication can result in atrophic lesions at the site of the treated cherry angiomas. In summary, the goal of this project is to compare the non-ablative pulsed dye laser and the AuraTM potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) laser to each other and to the current standard of care, electrodessication.
