Pustular psoriasis complicated with acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis

[摘要] Pustular psoriasis of the digits (acrodermatitis continua of Hallopeau) may be localized to one or more digits for over an extended period of time. Characteristic presentation is that of tender, diffusely eroded, and fissured pustular plaques on one or more digits. Transition to other forms of psoriasis and to generalized pustular psoriasis is known to occur. These patients have an increased risk of acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) compared to the general population. Pustular psoriasis is often therapy resistant.
