New-onset psoriasis in a maintenance hemodialysis patient.

Published: January 2012

New-onset psoriasis is extremely rare in hemodialysis (HD) patients, and several trials of dialysis therapies (HD and peritoneal dialysis) in psoriasis have indicated remarkable improvement in skin lesions and well-being even in patients without renal impairment. We describe a patient who developed severe psoriasis despite undergoing chronic maintenance hemodialysis for 5 years and was treated successfully with oral cyclosporin A.

While generally effective and safe, these therapies have been increasingly associated with secondary development of vitiligo, especially with anti-TNF α and anti-IL17 drugs. Dupilumab, an IL-4 receptor alpha antagonist used in moderate to severe AD, rarely induces vitiligo.

Exposure to certain drugs can trigger new-onset psoriasis or flaring of existing psoriatic disease. The clinical presentation of drug-induced psoriasis can vary, and although there are features suggestive of drug-induced psoriasis, there are currently no standardized criteria to differentiate it from conventional psoriasis. Patients may present with localized psoriasiform plaques, or variants such as palmoplantar, nail disease, or widespread erythroderma.
