Pustular psoriasis är en sällsynt hudsjukdom som orsakas av immunsystemet, som visar sig som gulaktiga finnar på röda fläckar, och det kan se olika ut hos varje person. Det är kopplat till vanlig psoriasis men har sina egna egenskaper. Dessa pustler kan spridas ut eller stanna i ett område och har vanligtvis massor av vita blodkroppar. Till skillnad från den vanliga psoriasisen med torra, fjällande fläckar, känns pustulös psoriasis ofta öm vid beröring.
Pustular psoriasis is a rare, immune-mediated systemic skin disorder characterized by yellowish pustules on an erythematous base with a variety of clinical presentations and distribution patterns. Pustular psoriasis is considered a variant of psoriasis vulgaris. The pustules can be widespread or localized and are characterized by a sterile predominantly neutrophilic infiltrate. Unlike chronic plaque psoriasis (the most common variant of psoriasis vulgaris), lesions of pustular psoriasis are often tender to palpation.

Pustular psoriasis är en ovanlig och svår typ av psoriasis. Det kännetecknas av utvecklingen av sterila pustler i olika mönster. Sjukdomens nyckelegenskaper förstoras. Generaliserad pustulös psoriasis varierar kraftigt när det gäller när den börjar, triggers, svårighetsgrad och progression.
Pustular psoriasis is a rare and extreme form of psoriasis characterized by the appearance of sterile pustules which can take many patterns. All the main pathological features of the disease are accentuated. Generalized pustular psoriasis is clinically heterogeneous in its age at onset, precipitants, severity, and natural history. Many overlapping clinical entities are recognized. There is a relationship between these entities and plaque psoriasis, as some individuals may have episodes of plaque psoriasis preceding or following the generalized pustular psoriasis, but in others generalized pustular psoriasis occurs as the sole phenotype without plaque psoriasis at any time.
