Unusual presentation of juvenile psoriatic arthritis : a case report

الملخص EN

Several recent surveys of arthritis in children that used similar diagnostic criteria have confirmed that Juvenile Psoriatic Arthritis account for approximately 7 percent of all cases of chronic childhood arthritis.

It is uncommon for the disease to begin before the age of one year.

We report a 5 month-old male infant who satisfied the clinical criteria for the diagnosis of Juvenile Psoriatic Arthritis.

To the best of our knowledge this is the first case to be diagnosed in the first year of age in Jordan.
