Article Description

Keloids belong to the group of fibroproliferative diseases and clinically often present with functional and cosmetic impairment of the patient, as well as with pruritus and pain. The pathogenesis of keloids has not been definitively clarified and treatment is often protracted and less than satisfactory. A variety of therapeutic options are available for treatment of keloids; however, the evidence base is small due to studies with low case numbers. Use of multimodal treatment concepts seems to be promising and has shown good results, especially in the treatment of auricular keloids.
