Brief summary

This pilot study aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of hemoporfin photodynamic therapy (PDT) with different light doses for port-wine stain (PWS)in 2-7 years old children. The pharmacokinetic behavior and pharmacokinetic parameters of hemoporfin in children will be investigated as well.
