- 2. OVERVIEW 5. Summary 2 4. Managing psoriasis 3. Diagnosing psoriasis 2. Clinical presentation 1. Introduction
- 3. WHAT IS PSORIASIS? Inflammatory and hyperplastic disease of skin Characterised by erythema and elevated scaly plaques Chronic, relapsing condition Course of disease often unpredictable 3
- 4. PSORIASIS 4
- 5. EPIDEMIOLOGY Common skin disorder Prevalence variable: ~ 0.3–2.5% Prevalence equal in males and females Estimated incidence: ~ 60 per 100,000 per year 5
- 6. AGE OF ONSET Mean age: ~ 23–37 years Current theory: 2 distinct peaks with possible genetic associations Early onset (16–22 years) More severe and extensive More likely to have affected first-degree family member Late onset (57–60 years) Milder form Affected first-degree family members nearly absent 6
- 7. PSORIASIS IS A T-CELL MEDIATED, AUTOIMMUNE DISEASE1 Current hypothesis: Unknown skin antigens stimulate immune response Antigen-specific memory T-cells are primary mediators Leads to impaired differentiation and hyperproliferation of keratinocytes 7
- 8. COMMON TRIGGER FACTORS FOR PSORIASIS Infections (e.g. streptococcal, viral) Skin trauma (Koebner phenomenon) Psychological stress Drugs (e.g. lithium, beta blockers) Sunburn Metabolic factors (e.g. calcium deficiency) Hormonal factors (e.g. pregnancy) 8
- 10. CLINICAL PRESENTATION: CLASSIC PSORIASIS Well-defined and sharply demarcated Round/oval- shaped lesions Usually symmetrical Erythematous, raised plaques Covered by white, silvery scales 10
- 11. COMMON SITES AFFECTED BY PSORIASIS Can affect any part of the body – typically scalp, elbow, knees and sacrum Extent of disease varies 1 11
- 13. TYPES OF PSORIASIS Chronic plaque Guttate Flexural Erythrodermic Pustular Localised and generalised Local forms Palmoplantar Scalp Nail (psoriatic onychodystrophy) 13
- 14. CHRONIC PLAQUE PSORIASIS Most common type – affects approximately 85% Features pink, well- defined plaques with silvery scale Lesions may be single or numerous Plaques may involve large areas of skin Classically affects elbows, knees, buttocks and scalp 14
- 19. GUTTATE PSORIASIS Numerous and small lesions – ~ 1 cm diameter Pink with less scale than plaque psoriasis Commonly found on trunk and proximal limbs Typically seen in individuals < 30 years Often preceded by an upper respiratory tract streptococcal infection 1. 19
- 20. FLEXURAL PSORIASIS Lesions in skin folds articularly groin, gluteal cleft, axillae and submammary regions Often minimal or absent scaling May cause diagnostic difficulty when genital or perianal region is affected in isolation 1 20
- 21. ERYTHRODERMIC PSORIASIS Generalised erythema covering entire skin surface May evolve slowly from chronic plaque psoriasis or appear as eruptive phenomenon Patients may become febrile, hypo/hyperthermic and dehydrated Complications include cardiac failure, infections, malabsorption and anaemia Relatively uncommon 21
- 22. PUSTULAR PSORIASIS Two forms: Localised form More common Presents as deep-seated lesions with multiple small pustules on palms and soles Generalised form Uncommo Associated with fever and widespread pustules across the body inflamed body surface 22
- 23. PALMOPLANTAR PSORIASIS Can be hyperkeratotic or pustular May mimic dermatitis – look for psoriatic manifestations elsewhere to aid diagnosis Possibly aggravated by trauma 23
- 24. SCALP PSORIASIS Varies from minor scaling with erythema to thick hyperkeratotic plaques May extend beyond hairline Patient scratching may produce asymmetric plaques 24
- 25. NAIL PSORIASIS May be present in patients with any type of psoriasis Can take several forms: Pitting: discrete, well- circumscribed depressions on nail surface Subungual hyperkeratosis: silvery white crusting under free edge of nail with some thickening of nail plate Onycholysis: nail separates from nail bed at free edge ‘Oil-drop sign’: pink/red colour change on nail surface 25
- 27. PSORIATIC ARTHRITIS Approximately 5–20% have associated arthritis Five major patterns of psoriatic arthritis: Distal interphalangeal involvement Symmetrical polyarthritis Psoriatic spondylarthropathy Arthritis mutilans Oligoarticular, asymmetrical arthritis Clinical expressions often overlap 27
- 28. DIAGNOSING PSORIASIS Other dermatological disorders can resemble psoriasis Diagnosed clinically according to appearance, distribution, history of lesions and family history Important to consider non-cutaneous complications 28
- 29. DIFFERENTIAL DIAGNOSIS Localised patches/plaques Tinea Eczema Superficial basal cell carcinoma and Bowen’s disease Seborrhoeic dermatitis Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (mycosis fungoides) Guttate Pityriasis rosea Drug eruption Secondary syphilis Flexural Tinea Eczema Candidiasis Seborrhoeic dermatitis Erythrodermic Eczema Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma Pityriasis rubra pilaris Lichen planus Drug Palmoplantar Tinea 29
