Clinical cases
PALMOPLANTAR PUSTULOSIS ASSOCIATED WITH OSTEOARTICULAR PAIN

Summary


Palmoplantar pustulosis (PPP) is a rare chronic inflammatory disease, characterized by the recurrent appearance of sterile pustules. PPP is one of the skin manifestations that can occur in patients with SAPHO syndrome (synovitis, acne, pustulosis, hyperostosis, osteitis), a rare syndrome, characterized by the association of various forms of arthropathy and neutrophilic skin conditions. In this paper, we present the case of a patient with palmoplantar pustulosis and osteoarticular pain in the left hemithorax and left sternocostal joint that raised the suspicion of SAPHO syndrome.
