Abstract
Pustular and erythrodermic psoriasis can be a debilitating and recalcitrant disease which may result in secondary complications
such as sepsis, electrolyte imbalance, renal failure, and heart failure. We report a case of a 46-year-old patient with lifethreatening
erythrodermic psoriasis who responded rapidly to intravenous infliximab.
