Electron-microscopic evaluation of collagen fibrils after topical corticosteroid therapy
Abstract
A method used to assess the atrophogenic effect of steroids by electron microscopy after ruthenium red staining is described. In two patients more atrophy was observed after fluocinolone treatment than after hydrocortisone 17-butyrate treatment.
