Abstract:
Nail psoriasis is a condition that can affect children and adolescents. It often is refractory to treatment. Data on its management in the pediatric population are limited. This article aims to summarize existing information-small case series and case reports-on the successful therapeutic approaches for nail psoriasis in children. As more agents are approved for on-label use in plaque psoriasis in pediatric patients, gradually more real-life data on their efficacy for nail psoriasis in children are expected to come to light.
