“…[16] Psoriasis: Congenital erythrodermic psoriasis is a rare condition. [29] It can be similar in appearance to NBIE, they are differentiated by positive family history and areas of unaffected skin in psoriasis, versus ectropion in non-bullous ichthyosiform erythroderma. [29] Later on they developed the typical psoriasiform lesions.…”

Although erythroderma is a well-recognized entity in the adult age groups and has been studied by various authors, there is a paucity of studies on erythroderma in the pediatric age group. It poses a greater challenge to the dermatologist and pediatrician because of its potential life threatening nature. In a study conducted by us in a large Indian hospital to delineate the causes of neonatal and infantile erythroderma, the causes identified were infections (40%), ichthyosiform erythroderma (25%), atopic dermatitis (15%), infantile seborrheic dermatitis (10%) and unidentified (10%). In another study of childhood erythroderma, etiologically, drugs (29%) showed the highest incidence, followed equally (18%) by genodermatoses, psoriasis and staphylococcal scalded skin syndrome (SSSS). The management of childhood erythroderma is mainly supportive with correction of the hematologic, biochemical and metabolic imbalance if required. In this review, the causes of childhood erythroderma, the clinical features useful to the diagnosis and management are discussed.

“…However, it is important to highlight that psoriasis is the most common cause of erythroderma, since it is responsible for about 25 % of all cases [2,4]. EP is more common in men (male-to-female sex ratio of 1.2-3.3:1) during adulthood (mean age of onset ranging from 41 to 55 years), although it has been described at all ages, including rare congenital instances [1,[5][6][7]. Although EP may be the first manifestation of psoriasis (de novo onset) in some subjects, it generally occurs in patients who already have chronic plaque-type psoriasis.…”
