Uncommon presentation of psoriasis vulgaris in an 11-year-old patient].

Psoriasis vulgaris occurs with a prevalence of up to 2% in childhood and adolescence. In most cases, diagnosis can be made clinically. We report about a pediatric patient with psoriasis vulgaris who posed a diagnostic challenge due to uncharacteristic manifestation. The most important differential diagnoses of various forms of psoriasis vulgaris as well as actual treatment recommendations in childhood and adolescence are discussed. © 2022. The Author(s).
