Isolated Genital Psoriasis - Rare and Disabling Location

Psoriasis is a chronic skin disease with a high impact on self-esteem and patients' health-related quality of life. It is well known that the genital skin may be affected by psoriasis. However, little is known about the prevalence and clinical appearance of genital psoriasis, and genital skin is often neglected in the treatment of psoriatic patients. The evaluation of the impact on the quality of life of genital psoriasis is hampered by the difficulty of specifically assessing the severity of the disease. We report a case of exclusively genital psoriasis in a patient consulting mainly for an impairment of quality of life.
