Dramatic Response of Nail Psoriasis to Infliximab

الملخص EN

Nail psoriasis, affecting up to 50% of psoriatic patients, is an important cause of serious psychological and physical distress.

Traditional treatments for nail psoriasis, which include topical or intralesional corticosteroids, topical vitamin D analogues, photochemotherapy, oral retinoids, methotrexate, and cyclosporin, can be time-consuming, painful, or limited by significant toxicities.

Biological agents may have the potential to revolutionize the management of patients with disabling nail psoriasis.

We present another case of disabling nail psoriasis that responded dramatically to infliximab.
