| Abstract: | Psoriasis is currently considered a multifactorial disease, which can coexist with many somatic and psychological disorders. We present the case of a 50-year-old woman referred to our department due to erythroderma with concomitant peculiar violaceous, polycyclic lesions most likely induced by medications. Past medical history revealed numerous systemic disorders, including metabolic syndrome, hypertension, cardiac insufficiency, obesity, and depression. Additional examinations and consultations demonstrated dyslipidemia, xanthelasma, incomplete block of the right branch of His bundle, thyreocardiac syndrome, benign adrenal tumor, and delusions. Recently, psoriasis has been intensively studied. We present the case in which erythroderma was most likely triggered by acitretin combined with ceftriaxone. Treatment of many diseases and psychiatric disturbances coexisting with psoriasis is extremely difficult and requires cooperation of various specialists. |
