Coming soonPlaque psoriasis, or psoriasis vulgaris, is a chronic immune-mediated inflammatory disorder primarily affecting the skin, most frequently diagnosed in adults.
Pathophysiologically driven by dysregulated T-cell activation and cytokine signaling—notably involving the IL-23/IL-17 and TNF pathways—the condition induces marked keratinocyte hyperproliferation and impaired epidermal maturation.
Clinically, it presents as well-demarcated, raised, erythematous or hyperpigmented plaques covered with overlying silvery-white scales.
Lesions typically manifest symmetrically across extensor surfaces such as the elbows and knees, the scalp, and the lumbosacral region, often accompanied by pruritus, pain, and nail dystrophies.
