A 20-year-old woman had polyarticular-onset type of juvenile rheumatoid arthritis with a chronic and destructive course since 6 years of age. She had developmental retardation, deformity and disability. Asymptomatic erythematous scaly plaques developed on the trunk. A skin biopsy specimen revealed psoriasis. This is the first report of psoriasis developing in a patient with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis.
