    Area of Science:

    • Pediatric Dermatology
    • Immunodermatology

    Background:

    • Infantile psoriasis diagnosis is debated, despite childhood psoriasis being recognized.
    • Understanding the long-term course of infantile psoriasis is crucial for management.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the long-term outcomes of children initially diagnosed with infantile psoriasis.
    • To assess disease progression, severity, and familial aggregation over time.

    Main Methods:

    • Follow-up examination of nine children diagnosed with infantile psoriasis.
    • Reevaluation conducted 6 to 13 years after initial diagnosis.

    Main Results:

    • Seven out of nine children experienced recurrent psoriatic lesions.
    • Two children achieved complete remission after the initial eruption.
    • Most cases showed mild disease progression, with increased familial psoriasis prevalence over time.

    Conclusions:

    • Infantile psoriasis can persist into childhood with recurrent lesions, often with a mild course.
    • Strong familial aggregation suggests a genetic component.
    • Education on triggers and psychosocial support, such as self-help workshops, is recommended.
