Abstract
Psoriasis is an uncommon dermatosis in young children with about 1/3rd of all patients having onset of disease in the first or second decade of life.[1] Psoriatic erythroderma is very rare condition in children. Erythrodermic psoriasis is a severe cutaneous disorder, which may pose diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. Non-bullous ichthyosis, atopic dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis, pityriasis rubra pilaris, infections, metabolic disease and drug reaction may cause erythroderma.[2-4] The therapy should be given after making the correct diagnosis. Here by, we present a case of 3 year old boy with Psoriasis, who developed erythrodermic psoriasis after an abrupt discontinuation of systemic corticosteroids.
