Abstract
A [human] case of EAC [erythema annulare centrifugum] type psoriasis is reported. Routine and immunologic investigations were negative. HLA-B8 was found by typing. Some therapeutic benefit was achieved by combination of retinoid (Ro-10-9359) plus P[psoralen]UVA. According to the literature, half of the cases are unconnected to classical psoriasis, while the other half is connected and mostly of (periodic) pulsular character. The necessity of clinical research in this intermediate type between psoriasis vulgaris and pustulosa is emphasized.
