    Area of Science:

    • Pediatrics
    • Dermatology

    Background:

    • Psoriasis vulgaris is a chronic inflammatory skin condition.
    • Infantile psoriasis is rare and often overlooked.

    Observation:

    • This study observed 14 infants under 2 years with psoriasis vulgaris.
    • Three infants showed signs of psoriasis in the neonatal period, with one possibly having prenatal onset.
    • The isomorphic effect (Koebner's phenomenon) influenced the site of onset in 13 patients.

    Findings:

    • Nail changes, including pitting, were present in 79% of the infants, contradicting the notion that nail pitting is infrequent in childhood psoriasis.
    • Psoriasis vulgaris can manifest in infants, presenting a diagnostic challenge.

    Implications:

    • Psoriasis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of papulosquamous disorders in infants.
    • Early recognition of infantile psoriasis is crucial for appropriate management.
    • Further research into the specific characteristics and management of infantile psoriasis is warranted.
