The Efficacy of Intralesional Bleomycin as Compared to 5-Flourouracil (5-FU) and Triamcinolone Acetonide (TAC) for the Treatment of Keloids: A Randomized Control Trial.

The role of intralesional bleomycin for the treatment of keloids needs further establishment in terms of effective concentration, number of sessions and post treatment ulceration or/and hypopigmentation. Additionally, its comparison to the commonly used and proven, more effective combination than intralesional steroid alone i-e 5-FU in combination with the intralesional steroid, need also be done so that if found affective will be able to deal with the pathological scar as a 1 st line therapeutic drug. With a strong study design and an adequate sample size, and particularly in a specialized tertiary care clinical setup, Our study, seeks to get over the aforementioned limitations, and will delineates the appropriate guidelines for the management of these pathological scars, and suggest option with the best outcomes, as well as lesser side effects and recurrence rates.
