- Abstract
Psoriasis is a chronic, immune-mediated inflammatory disease with cutaneous manifestations, associated with systemic involvement in moderate to severe psoriasis, that has a negative impact on patient's quality of life. Psoriasis has multiple clinical presentations, but the most common one is vulgar psoriasis. Comorbidities associated with psoriasis are numerous and of multidisciplinary interest, the most important being cardiovascular diseases, depression and psoriatic arthritis. The diagnosis is based on the clinical examination and is confirmed by the histopathological exam. The gold standard of treatment in psoriasis vulgaris remains systemic therapy with methotrexate, while the evolution of the biologic therapies leads to the widening of the therapeutic horizon, especially for moderate and severe forms.
