Arms of the Study
Arm 1
Arm Type
Experimental
Arm Label
Calcium electroporation
Arm Description
The keloid will be treated with intratumoral injection of calcium chloride followed by electrotransfer. It is a once only treatment. Calcium chlorid concentration is 9 mg/ml Total dose is 0,5ml/cm3 tumor volume.
Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Response evaluated by Vancouver Scar Scale
Vancouver scar scale evaluate the keloids by: pigmentation, pliability, height, and vascularity.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Adverse events to calcium electroporation.
Describe adverse events using Common Terminology for Adverse Events, version 4.0
